The cost is covered by the service charge and is a cheaper alternative to buying one of the 92 underground parking spaces, which cost £50,000. John Tutte, CEO of Redrow, is calling for a standardised planning approach to parking. The company has been working with the City of Melbourne on its new parking strategy, which will see it develop and manage more than 500 kilometres of public space over five years. Housing developers are increasingly meeting the needs of eco-friendly car owners, especially in the luxury market. Some, such as London’s Battersea Place, offer a car pool service as well as a chauffeur, while at Barratt Homes development Fulham Riverside in south-west London, a year's free membership of a car pool scheme is included. In Cambridge, housebuilder Hill is offering a £50 driving credit for a Zipcar scheme close to its Magna development, and even 18th-century Woolley House in Dorset comes with a solar-powered car charging point.
