Representation Summary:
Town centre car parking generates car trips - significant contributor to carbon emissions within town centre. Availability of parking is a disincentive to modal shift and more sustainable travel options. To comply with national zero carbon objectives, Draft needs to acknowledge car parking is material in an overall assessment of carbon emissions and the overarching objective of reducing carbon emissions. Make reference to national policy and the Ipswich Climate Emergency.
