They're a completely separate permit system and much older than the rest of the city's permit zones. The council has been trying to move them to the new permit system for years but the residents always put up a fight.
I don't live in those areas, but as far as I understand it, it's about the bay allocation. The older system has bays that are resident permit holders only, and bays that are pay and display only. You can't pay and display in a permit space, and can't use a permit in a pay and display space. The newer scheme has mixed bays - you can use a permit or pay and display in any space. The residents don't want to give up their 'resident permit holder only' bays, even though it effectively means they can't park in half the bays in their own streets because they're pay and display only. |
