Parking Control Bylaw 2020
The Invercargill City Council is reviewing, and proposing amendments to, its Parking Control Bylaw.
The Parking Control Bylaw enables Council to control parking activities and ensure parking is enforced to protect and enhance the safety and enjoyment of the public, while providing a clear understanding of the use of roads and public walkways as well as parking restrictions.
A significant part of the Bylaw review process is a proposal to introduce a new parking zone, which will replace all old parking meters with parking kiosks as part of the introduction of a pay by plate system.

Roading and Traffic Bylaw 2020
The Invercargill City Council is reviewing, and proposing amendments to, its Roading and Traffic Bylaw.
The primary purpose of the bylaw is to promote public safety and effectively regulate pedestrian, animal and traffic movement in the road corridors of the Invercargill City Council area as well as enhance the safety and enjoyment of the public, ensuring the functionality of the roads while providing a clear understanding of the use of roads.
Council is not proposing any significant changes to the bylaw. There has been some new sections added to it relating to cycle paths, cruising, and shared zones to better align our Bylaw with others throughout New Zealand and to provide clarity to the public.
There have also been some updates made to definitions and minor changes to some rules.
This is an opportunity for people to start giving feedback on speed limits, should they wish to.
