Criteria

Two-tier criteria
First tier criteria met if the council has a controlled parking zone across any area of the local authority. This can be for any time period stated.

Second tier criteria met if the council has controlled parking zones across the whole area of the local authority. This can be for any time period stated.

Clarifications

A controlled parking zone is where Residential Permit Parking is only permitted.

By making areas residential permit parking only it discourages short trips by car, as parking is not as readily available.

If a rural authority, or an authority with rural areas, has parking permits for all of it's urbanised areas (cities and/or towns) then this will be counted as being across the whole of the local authority, even if this does not include the whole of the geographic area.
