Battersea CPZ B1 parking consultation

We reviewed the operational times of the Battersea CPZ B1 sub-zone in response to a petition from residents.

Background

We asked residents in the Battersea CPZ, B1 sub-zone for their views on parking conditions and on extending the CPZ operational times. This followed receipt of a petition from residents in the Little India roads (Afghan Road, Cabul Road, Candahar Road, Kerrison Road, Khyber Road, Nepaul Road, Patience Road, Rowena Crescent) SW11. The petitioners requested the extension to the operating hours and days of the CPZ (currently 9.30am to 4.30pm, Monday to Friday) to operate 8.30am to 7.30pm, Monday to Sunday. The reason for submitting this request was to address the difficulties they experience finding a space during and outside the operational times due to non-residents parking in the road.

Consultation

Residents were asked for their views specifically on the possibility of extending the hours /days of control to 8.30am to 6.30pm, or to 7.30pm, Monday to Saturday or Monday to Sunday or to retain the existing arrangements.

Results

The consultation closed on 18 December 2017.
