trade vet 703 Posted May 19, 2020 I think when this is over,there might now be a better case for more parking in city centres or they could become ghost towns. There could be a huge cost both in lost business rates and job losses caused by emission zones.These well paid left wing councillors don’t understand that a large proportion of car owning commuters and shoppers will never walk,pushbike,taxi or use public transport.Post Coved ,those large department stores ( some paying £1m business rates ) and then closed down by online competition could be converted into car parks to encourage business and create/retain jobs in city centres.A few years ago some councils were proposing taxing businesses who had their own parking places.!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
