BATH & NORTH EAST SOMERSET COUNCIL (VARIOUS ROADS, BATH AND NORTH EAST SOMERSET) (PROHIBITION OF STOPPING, WAITING, LOADING AND PARKING PLACES) (VARIATION NO.5) ORDER 2026

NOTICE IS GIVEN that the Bath and North East Somerset Council proposes to make an order under provisions contained in the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, the effect of which will introduce the following variations to restrictions in Bath and North East Somerset:-

• Introduction of an additional resident’s permit charge based on vehicle size (area) in 2026/27.

• An increase to visitor permit charges in 2026/27.

• Introduction of emissions-based parking charges at unrestricted sections of Weston Road, Bath, between the junction with Park Lane and the north east entrance into Royal Victoria Park.

• It’s proposed that 25 metres of central zone permit holder parking on Monmouth Street be changed to Police Vehicle only parking and to mitigate this reduction in permit holder parking, 25 metres of dual-use (permit holder/pay and display) parking on Monmouth Place will become exclusive central zone permit holder parking. This also includes a further amendment to formalise a loading bay on Monmouth Place within the Traffic Regulation Order.
