Bath’s New Parking Rules Target Big Vehicles | Bristol News

Bath’s parking rules are getting a major upgrade—starting Tuesday, all on-street permits jump 20%, and bigger vehicles like SUVs and vans face steeper fees based on their footprint. The council’s goal? Free up space, boost safety, and nudge drivers toward smaller, greener cars. After public feedback, visitor permits rise gradually, new restrictions hit Weston Road, and park-and-ride costs tick up slightly (though Saturday charges were dropped). Calculated via your vehicle’s registration, fees range from $20 discounts for tiny cars to over $100 hikes for vans—based on exact square meters. It’s all about smarter, safer, more sustainable streets for everyone. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
