Businesses in Paisley have launched a petition to save a parking initiative within the town centre..

Business owners gathered outside Paisley's Town hall with the petition that looks to save the 'Free for Three' parking scheme which was launched by the town’s Business Improvement District, Paisley First.With the pilot scheme extended over the last few years, there are now six car parks included in the scheme – Hunter Street Upper and Lower, Orchard Street, Weighhouse Close, Oakshaw, School Wynd and both car parks at the Lagoon Leisure Centre.

William highlighted how taking away the free parking initiative will drive people away from the town centre at a team that is relying on foot traffic. Elaine Templeton, Chair of Paisley First, has highlighted how the parking initiative is not solely to blame for the reduction in revenue within the area.

“However, the Director of Environment & Infrastructure’s own report to the council’s Leadership Board in February 2020, stated that Free for Three only resulted in a 15% reduction in revenue, costing the council around £180,000 per year.
