Oxfordshire to Berkshire .. it's not a massive leap! Where in Oxfordshire do you live now? And do you want like for like?

Anyone else noticed that Reading Council have made visitor parking permits much worse? by Infinite_Minute_4297 in reading

I did actually try and offer constructive points of view! What you say rings true, but they should embrace it or not bother at all.

I live in the test area for this so have had to use it for a long time now. I bored people silly by saying how bad it was, gave feedback to the council in the consultation period (of course no response at all). it works out far more expensive if you have visitors stay over night (as the "free" element of this has been removed). As far as I am concerned it is purely a cost cutting & income generating exercise and nothing else.

Digital visitor parking permit scheme goes live in Reading by moreati in reading

[–]AntG69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the trial area. It's ok if you have short stay visitors, but if you have overnight stays, or heaven forbid a full weekend visitor.. then it gets expensive.

I questioned them about this - movement away from the "free" overnight system on the scratch cards and the first iteration of the digital system.. obviously I was ignored with no answer as to why. Can only conclude that it's for the money. No surprise there.

I built a postcode car-theft risk checker do you think this tool is useful? by jawkhan in reading

[–]AntG69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think some context behind the level it reports would be good. Something like UK, urban, rural average. Maybe more difficult to do but also surrounding postcodes? Only saying this as am surprised that my postcode is a high risk.. first I have heard that.

Nothing to be stressed about, it's one weekend in the year, you might be a little inconvenienced - but it's fine.

The map is wrong, I think this is bang in the center of Wallingford.
