Today we have launched a petition calling on Dover District Council to review its parking restrictions and charges across the district.

Residents, visitors and businesses have raised serious concerns about the current parking strategy, including the new three-hour maximum stay in some car parks, such as Guildhall Car Park in Sandwich.

Our towns need parking policies that support local businesses, encourage visitors to stay longer and help our high streets thrive, not restrictions that risk driving people away.

This matters across the whole district, including Sandwich, Deal, Dover and our surrounding communities.

If you think DDC needs to rethink its approach and deliver a fairer, more balanced parking strategy, please add your name here:

Please share this with anyone who cares about supporting our town centres, tourism and local businesses.
