Bristol City Council has ruled out introducing a workplace parking levy because of the cost-of-living crisis.

A feasibility study of the scheme found that the levy might raise an estimated £2m per year, which would be invested in public transport.

However, Mayor Marvin Rees has ruled out the introduction of a workplace parking levy because of high inflation and the increase in the cost of living.

He said: ‘With high inflation during a national cost of living crisis, now is not the time to create more costs for people. Others will say that today is an ideal moment to hit teachers, nurses, and other Bristolians parking at schools, hospitals, and other workplaces in central Bristol for hundreds of pounds, if not even more. They are wrong.’
