Arun District Council launches consultation on future of district's car parks
Residents, businesses and visitors are being asked for their views on the future of council-owned car parks in the Arun district.
Arun District Council has launched a consultation on its draft Off-Street Parking Strategy 2027–2030, which will set out priorities for how the district's parking facilities are managed over the next four years.
The council says the strategy aims to ensure its car parks continue to support local communities and businesses, while responding to changing travel needs.
People who regularly use council car parks, as well as those who only use them occasionally, are being encouraged to complete the consultation survey.
Councillor Roger Nash, chair of the council's Economy Committee, said: “The way we manage our off-street parking facilities is important for residents, businesses and visitors alike.
“This draft strategy sets out our vision for the future of council-owned car parks and how they can continue to support our
communities, local economy and changing travel needs.
“We are keen to hear from as many people as possible during this consultation. Whether you use our car parks regularly or only occasionally, your views will help shape the priorities and proposals within the final Off-Street Parking Strategy 2027-2030.
"I would encourage everyone with an interest to take a look at the draft strategy and share their feedback.”
The consultation is open until Monday, October 12, 2026.
