'We were already struggling to get parking outside our homes'
Residents and councillors have raised concerns over parking "chaos" after plans to build 36 new homes were given the go-ahead. The site in Lenton has been sitting vacant for around 10 years and while many have welcomed the plan to use the land, fears remain over the parking situation.
The abstentions came due to concerns over parking. The proposal will result in a loss of roughly 50% of the current on-street car parking on Willoughby and Harley Streets, which will be detrimental to users of the Lenton Centre and Quakers swimming school, consultation comments said.Vizz Oppal, who has lived in the area all her life, said: "We were already struggling to get parking outside our homes. I think it is going to make it really congested.
