The council would like to reassure readers that nothing has changed for mobility parking permit holders wishing to park in the inner city.
Excluding P15 parks, they may park in any regular parks, for double the amount of time specified, free of charge, as long as a valid mobility permit is clearly displayed in the vehicle.
Information about parking in our inner city is available on the council's website.

Legends of the fall
The letter from Chriss Taylor (Letters, June 7) saddened me.
Go to Quebec in the fall- October - and walk through the towns and villages. Feel the rustle of leaves - maple, ash, birch, oak, and all the myriad leaves that cover the paths and fields and gardens, smell the gentle burning as gardeners have small bonfires and let the smoke drift with the evening mist that lets the moonlight and frost cover the land.
Walk through an English wood and smell the gentle rotting leaves as they hasten to fertilise the ground ready for the flush of spring.
My neighbour and I gather the leaves every autumn and I add them to our shared compost - knowing that the food we put on the soil next spring will hasten the growth of the fruit and vegetables we grow.
Autumn leaves - I could not dream without them, they are a part of life for me.
