Car Park permit income has fallen dramatically in Bournemouth. Between April and November the Council had projected they would recieve £500,000 from the sale of parking permits, in the same period last year it recieved £300,000, it actually recieved only £150,000. The sharp drops in revenue are being put down to cost cutting by companies like Abbey Life and Nationwide who have cut back on staff permits.
To stem the tide Bournemouth council has slashed prices by upto a quarter in some areas and it's hoped that reduction in fees could encourage people to come into Bournemouth and shop.
