Informal Consultation Closed, 8 December 2017

Informal Consultation, 13 November – 8 December 2017

What is the problem?

This proposal is in response to representations received from local residents, who are experiencing parking difficulties in their area. Generally, residents feel the problem is being caused by:

  • Commuters who park and complete their journey by public transport or those working in nearby businesses.
  • Existing CPZ’s displacing parking into the uncontrolled area.
  • Recently introduced and extended CPZs displacing parking into the uncontrolled area.
  • Residents and staff of nearby businesses within the neighbouring CPZs avoiding parking charges.

What are the plans?

You can take a look at the proposed CPZ Streatham Hill area leaflet for your area to see details of the proposals, as well as view them on map one and map two.
