shopping parking is not as important as for food shopping
Strength of retail offer is key draw not availability of parking

Congestion Urban congestion costs
£10bn Cruising for parking
“My father didn’t pay for parking, my mother, my brother, nobody. It’s like going to a prostitute. Why should I pay when, if I apply myself, maybe I can get it for free?” George Costanza
average time to find a curb space 8mins & 30% cars cruising for parking
Clear economic rationale for intervention
