Question:
To ask the Minister for Regional Development whether he intends to introduce a residents only parking scheme in the Rosstulla Park area, adjacent to the University of Ulster, Jordanstown, to ensure that residents are not restricted by vehicles parking in this area to avoid car parking charges at the University.

Answer:

My Department’s Roads Service has advised that the purpose of Residents’ Parking schemes is to enable residents to find convenient on-street parking places close to their home. As the properties in Rosstulla Park have private driveways, a Residents’ Parking Scheme is not considered to be a priority and there are no plans to introduce such a scheme in the area.
