Change to- Car parking requires careful consideration. Parking requires inefficient land take, given over to expensive assets that depreciate fast and, on average, remain parked 90% of the time. In suitable locations, developers should therefore consider reducing land take by offering alternatives to car parking, notably car clubs and public transport, and making walking &cycling easier than the car for short journeys. Otherwise parking spaces should be an integral part of the layout and design of the new dwelling. Care is required to ensure that parking is convenient.
