Planned Sunday car parking charges in Somerset revealed

Somerset Council held a consultation in September and October on implementing car parking charges on Sundays across the county, aiming to take a "consistent approach to parking" and harmonise the various charges it inherited from the previous councils.

By replicating current parking prices on Sundays, the council estimates that it will raise around £730,000 of additional funding every year, which can be reinvested into different front-line services.

The proposals have been widely criticised by councillors across the political spectrum, with one Conservative councillor branding it "an anti-motorist attack by a cash-hungry council".
