    Interesting report that Bob, thanks for the link. It occurs to me that one simple change might just alter the balance back the other way, i.e. toward the town centre. That change is to remove parking restrictions completely, no meters, no yellow lines, no nasty wardens workign to a target.

    If folks could park outside shops they may not feel so inclined to convenience shop at the big chains, and after all, what would be the harm in trying the change for 12 months to see what the impact on town centre retail is?

    Please let's not get into a discussion about lost parking revenues. No gain without a bit of pain. In fact, consider the lost revenues an investment in town centre regeneration.
