July Parking Promotion Proposal

Motorists could be able to park for free on Saturdays and Sundays in July at the Greenmarket and Olympia multi-storey car parks.
Councillors are being asked to back the promotion to encourage the use of car parks on the edge of Dundee’s recently launched Low Emission Zone (LEZ).
Fair Work, Economic Growth and Infrastructure convener Councillor Steven Rome said: “We are proposing this promotion in July to raise awareness of these car parks outside the LEZ and encourage more motorists to use them in the longer term. In addition, the promotion will help to support businesses during the initial period of the LEZ’s introduction.
“The majority of people coming to the city centre travel by public transport or vehicles that are compliant with the LEZ restrictions, however the car parks situated on the edge of the zone provide very close access for those driving uncompliant cars.”
The Fair Work, Economic Growth and Infrastructure Committee, which meets on Monday June 10, will hear that there would be no change to season ticket tariffs during the promotion.
