Representation Summary:

• All houses/bungalows should have a drive so that car charging can be done safely for pedestrians on pavements. These drives could be at the rear or the front but parking for two vehicles would be advised including with terraces houses.
• Of terraced housing is to be built and there is no drive, a car park should be built with allocated 2 spaces per house.
• All flats should have adequate ‘off road’ parking.
• Additional car parking for roads with only terraced houses on, should be allocated a designated ‘off road’ parking area to prevent a) individuals from breaking the law by trailing electric car charging cables across the pavement making these a trip hazard to all or preventing disabled people particularly those in wheelchair, scooters or walking aids from being able to travel safely and without obstruction along our pavements.
