00:00A report going before city leaders says the wider rise in parking fees in Liverpool City Centre and charges would support financial recovery and sustainability for the local authority.
00:13Council studies also found the proposed prices remain competitive compared to other co-cities and private sector operators.
00:21Due to confirmation of free parking after 6pm being scrapped, it means all on-street spaces within the city centre-controlled parking zone would be charged until 11pm.
00:33After consultation with businesses and subject to approval by the Council's Cabinet when it meets, the maximum stay after 6pm would increase to 5 hours.
00:43Cabinet members will be asked to back plans to raise parking charges by an average of 11%.
00:49Under the proposals, the cost of 30 minutes in the city centre would rise by 30 pence an hour.
00:56Before 6pm, parking would remain limited to a maximum stay of 4 hours, rising to 5 hours after 5pm following consultation with businesses, particularly around Hope Street.
01:08Council-owned car parks, including Mount Pleasant, Victoria Street, the M&S Bank Arena and Paddington Village are also expected to see increases averaging more than 8%.
01:20In its report, the Council said the proposed increases will generate additional income to reinvest in transport infrastructure.
