Everton stadium parking zone could ‘kill jobs’ – petition claims
“It’s unbelievably overzealous what they’ve done,” he wrote.
“We understand there needs to be matchday parking restrictions, there’s going to be lots of people coming into the area.
“But they have basically said no parking at any time in a lot of the surrounding areas which is affecting thousands of businesses, residents that can’t have visitors around, it’s completely overzealous, it’s stupid.”
Mr Smith also said that the restrictions posed risks to staff leaving late night venues who would be unable to afford to park outside their workplaces.
More than 4,000 residents and 3,000 businesses have been invited to apply for the relevant parking permits ahead of the zone going live under an Experimental Traffic Road Order (ETRO).
The ETRO will run for up to 18 months and will be reviewed by the council’s highways and transportation team.
