Guide to parking reviews v2 guide and steps
Parking review consultations
We are asking for your views on changes to parking controls in Lewes District, find out more and have your say about the Lewes parking review informal consultation.
These consultations opened on 12 June and will close on 3 July 2026.
4. Formal consultation
Once the informal consultation has closed all the responses have to be reviewed. Sometimes the responses show an overall support or objection to the proposals and the outcome is easily known. Most often there are conflicting responses and we need to find a balance to differing needs. The original proposals may be adjusted following consideration of the responses, or new proposals may be made.
When the final proposals and a draft traffic regulation order are ready, they must go through another round of consultation, called formal consultation. For this the proposals are advertised:
- on street lampposts
- in a local newspaper
- by delivering information postcards to local residents and businesses, and,
- on our consultation hub
Any objections to the proposals must be made in writing, either by letter, email or through the consultation hub.
