Motorists driving around Nottingham could be affected by a raft of changes put forward to allow for the redevelopment of the Broadmarsh site.
The city council is proposing to introduce new waiting restrictions across the city as well as introducing one-way street provisions.
Changes could be made to more than a dozen streets in the area to allow for the multi-million-pound redevelopment of the Broadmarsh Shopping Centre, car park and bus station and surrounding streets.
Nottinghamshire Live reported this week that a short stretch of Carrington Street would close to vehicles from next Monday, April 15.
And more changes could be on the way, too.
There is the potential to prohibit waiting and/or loading/unloading at any time; and to prohibit waiting from Monday to Friday between 7.30am and 8pm as well as at weekends.

And the council has revealed loading bays, disabled bays and taxi ranks could be introduced operating at any time or at set periods.
Other measures could include temporary one-way street provisions, temporarily banning driving in some locations and temporarily preventing left and right turns.
Such changes would add to plans to pedestrianise Collin Street next to the shopping centre, with work set to start next year.
A Nottingham City Council spokesman said: “With a big programme like the redevelopment of the Boardmarsh Shopping Centre, car park and bus station and surrounding streets, it’s vital that we have measures in place to ensure work can go ahead safely but with traffic and people still being able move around the area.
Why does Nottingham's great potential remain untapped?
"That’s why since last May we have had a general order in place covering a number of streets around the Broadmarsh area where we can introduce certain restrictions to facilitate works.
“One of the most noticeable examples of this was the closure of the northern section of Carrington Street to traffic this week, which is not only to enable work to get underway on site, but will be a permanent measure since in the final scheme this area becomes paved and pedestrianised.
"More of these restrictions will start to be introduced in other areas as the redevelopment gathers pace and we will of course publicise them in the usual ways so that all road users are aware of the changes that are coming.”
