West Sussex County Council: On-Street Controls / Restrictions

As levels of car ownership and car use continue to increase, pressure for parking space also increases. This is felt most acutely in town centres and in the residential areas closest to shopping and business centres, railway stations, hospitals, colleges and other facilities that generate a high demand for parking. This can cause considerable congestion, frustration, inconvenience and road safety issues for both residents and car users alike.

As the Highway Authority, it is West Sussex County Council's responsibility to manage this demand and to ensure that parking space is used as fairly as possible.
