Manchester Liberal Democrat Leader Councillor Simon Ashley today voiced his concern that City Centre Car Parking increases triple the rate of inflation would harm small business and play into the hands of the Trafford Centre.

He said, "With parking now at £2 per hour in the City Centre, there is a danger that we are putting our City Centre businesses, particularly small businesses, at a competitive disadvantage compared to places that offer free parking like the Trafford Centre."
