Battersea Park Area CPZ review
We are asking residents and businesses in the Battersea Park Area Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) whether they feel any changes should be made to the operation of the zone.
Background
We have listened to local concerns, including a petition, from residents of the Battersea Park Area CPZ about difficulties parking on street within the zone in the evening and at weekends when the CPZ is not in operation.
It has been reported that after 5pm and all weekend many visitors to Battersea Park choose to park in streets close to the park. This is to avoid paying in the car parks inside the park, especially during the summer months and when there are events taking place in the park as more people park in the local streets.
It has also been reported that on-street parking has become more difficult in the evening and all weekend since the opening of the Battersea Power Station development and the adjacent tube station as visitors can park for free and then walk to the power station site.

Consultation
We are now asking for your views about possible changes to the operational hours and days of the CPZ. For example, are you happy with the existing parking controls or would you wish to see them extended so that they operate later into the evening or at weekends?
The consultation opens on Monday 24 June 2024 and closes on Sunday 28 July 2024.

Please complete the survey online as it is quicker for us to process the results.
What happens next
The results will be analysed for the whole area and on a street-by-street basis. This means that changes could be made throughout the zone if widely supported, or in some (highway) roads and not others, if appropriate.
The final decision will not be based on the views of residents and businesses alone. All feedback will be considered along with relevant traffic management and other highway factors, prior to a decision being made on the way forward. We will write to you once we have made a decision and an update will be provided on this webpage.
