According to a news article, the 17 per cent increase
in parking costs are set to continue for the next decade, with Sydney City
Council placing a significant financial emphasis on car-related revenue. This
comes as the revenue from parking fines dropped by $3.5 million, due to
‘increased compliance and increased use of public transport’ by motorists.
