Stop parking fees at service stations whilst COVID 19 outbreak is still here

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

To stop the fees for parking at service stations. Lorries and vans running up and down suppling our country are working so hard to keep everyone supplied and we can’t can’t even stop for more than 2-3 hours without paying an extortionate amount to stay longer, and can’t get a meal either.

At the moment it is the transport industry keeping the county afloat, even the NHS for that matter. If we all become ill then the supply chain stops. It’s a disgrace that a company out there is making all this money from parking fees and we can’t even get a hot meal! I stopped tonight and a lorry fee for £30 for 24 hrs and my van was £15!! Who ever stops for up to 24 hrs?? This needs to be addressed and the fees stopped until the COVID 19 outbreak is over !!!! FREE PARKING FOR THE TRANSPORT INDUSTRY

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Parking charges at individual service stations is a matter for their operators, not the UK Government or Parliament.
