      It's all very well stating your opinion about the value of free parking - but you don't get to dismiss the claim that the car parking is subsidised to the tune of nearly £200,000 without actually checking your facts.
      I'm not sure the excuse that 'I'll have to hire more staff to cater to an increase in customers that won't cover the cost of more staff' is a very convincing argument. It seems to be working from an assumption about expected future customers that is at best, guesswork. I'm not saying there is no reason to object to the pedestrianisation of that street, but from what I've seen here, it kinda seems like nimbyism and reactionary attitudes more than any real cause (budgetary concerns aside).
      More than anything, what comes across here is your wholly subjective attitude towards any initiative intended to confront climate change. I would hope you are not one of those people who deny there are problems we need to face, simply because you don't like the idea of having to change your habits.

      How much does it really cost to run a car park though? Does parking your car for an hour over some tarmac degrade the tarmac by £3, or even £5 in some touristy places? Do the loons have the first clue about economics and business? Who is going to park their car to pick up say a £3 lunch when the parking alone doubles their cost? What will happen to the business who loses this trade, and how is a boarded up shop going to pay business rates?

    Hi Rachel, we’ve got the same going on in Thornbury, South Gloucestershire. They closed the high street in covid, then announced it would be permanent. The majority voted against it in a parish vote, which the council said wouldn’t count towards their decision. So they’ve now spent nearly 5 million basically re-paving and making it one way access for delivery’s and disabled only.
    Now they want to bring in parking charges too.
    It’s easy to waste when the money is not your own !

    I used to love Colchester, my wife & I regularly used to holiday in Essex and a visit to Colchester town centre used to be a highlight of our trips. That changed back in 2022 when we visited for the first time in about 4 years. We were somewhat confused, the previously lovely city full,of independent shops and easy parking had somehow changed beyond all recognition. Taken over by aliens maybe? The roads alone were so confusing we were frightened to drive anywhere at risk of being in the wrong lane, wrong road and being fined.
    Short story is - We left, never to return and I doubt we ever will. Their loss! 😳

    Councils have become very proficient at operating under the radar of a disinterested electorate but they turn into dithering mouth breathers the moment they have to explain themselves.

If they make it harder to do this, I might as well carry on to BSE and enjoy the shops and additional facilities there. Sudbury ain't broke so why try to mess around with it. Cafe culture is nice on a warm Mediterranean evening, but on an average UK day it's not that pleasant. A bit like non leisure cycling really. But hey, it's only the local cafes who are saying it won't work and what do they know?

    If the town council are against the district's imposition, I suggest the leader should look district square in the eye and say, "no! We're not doing that". I guess he will want to feel secure he has the public's full support; and if acting truly as a public servant, he would certainly merit that. It will require a backbone and a sense of brinkmanship, but if he could pull it off, well, it's a hearts and minds winner. As for the dippy-hippie, at a loss for words.
