Overall, a series of changes to parking restrictions will result in 28 car parks being removed from what Dunedin city councillor Sophie Barker described as "suburbs". The Dunedin City Council endorsed the recommendations of its regulatory subcommittee yesterday, approving changes to parking controls and changing traffic restrictions. Ward St, between Halsey St and Wickliffe St, in the wharf area, will change to one-way traffic and markings for 32 car parks will be added. The Otago Regional Council has proposed a series of changes to its bus service, including the location of bus stops. The city council decided to support this with no-stopping lines that would create easier entries and exits for buses using those bus stops.
