Positive Parking Agenda

The Positive Parking Agenda (PPA) is an initiative started by a group of local authorities, including Bristol, Essex, Gloucestershire, Liverpool, Oxfordshire, York and London Councils, supported and assisted by the British Parking Association.

Together we have launched a national campaign to deliver the Positive Parking Agenda and build public confidence in the parking sector. Together the aim is to change perceptions, challenge misconceptions about the parking sector and local government's role and make the parking experience a better one for all concerned. Our Positive Parking Agenda will provide effective and positive communications, promoting innovation and the use of technology, for the benefit of all.
