NO ON-ROAD PARKING SPACES FOR INDIVIDUALS
Requests Will Not Be Considered
No requests by individuals for the exclusive use of on-road parking
spaces outside their promises would be considered, the Transport Department
announced today.
A spokesman said that the department frequently received requests
from persons in schools, shops, factories, godowns and blocks of flats for
special allocation of on-road car parking spaces outside the premises.
"All these requests have to be refused because, whereas, there
are legal powers to reserve parking spaces for certain categories of
vehicle, there are no powers to reserve spaces specially for the vehicles of
certain people," he added.
The spokesman stressed that the Department was always willing to
consider requests for the designation of kerbside spaces for loading/unloading
of commercial vehicles and for the parking of various categories of vehicles
provided those spaces could be used by any vehicle of the right category.
