Parking and roads

A consultation for updates to the Off-Street Parking Order has been launched, running until 18 March 2025.

The Borough Council of Great Yarmouth propose to make an Order under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, which will consolidate The Borough of Great Yarmouth (Off-Street Parking Places) (Lorry and Coach Parking Places) and (Residential Parking Places) Civil Enforcement (No 2) Order 2014 (hereinafter the 2014 Order) and all related orders and variations (which will become revoked on the commencement of this Order) and will introduce the following:

1. The designation and use of parking places were revised, including the addition of new Electric Vehicle Parking Bays and the introduction of charging points at several car parks in Great Yarmouth (Fullers Hill, King Street, Market Place, Greyfriars Way, Euston Road, Leisure Centre, St Nicholas, and Beach Coach Station Car Park, Nelson Road North) and in Gorleston-on-Sea (High Street).
2. Seasonal fees are introduced at Brush Quay, Gorleston-on-Sea, between 1 April and 30 September.
3. Staff parking is introduced at the Great Yarmouth Borough Council offices at Catalyst House and Novus Centre, The Conge, Great Yarmouth. Parking is available for vehicles displaying a valid permit, with 10 minutes of free parking for the general public using the Print Room, Monday to Sunday.

The purpose of this consolidation and variation includes making typographical corrections and removing superfluous wording for clarity, updating legislative references to comply with the current Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and the Traffic Management Act 2004, adding new definitions and clarifying existing definitions, as well as removing sections on enforcement and anti-social behaviour to align with existing legislation and practices.
