TRANSPORT bosses in York are looking to create more parking spaces to ease pressure on the current facilities at an industrial estate in the city.

City of York Council wants to provide an extra seven spaces on land in Hospital Fields Road, saying it will “alleviate” demand for bays for firms based at Fulford Industrial Estate.

If approved, the places would initially be used by staff and parents at a nearby day nursery. A planning application for the scheme has been drawn up.
