Clapham South and Balham Controlled Parking Zone (H2 -zone) - Review

Overview

The Council has received a petition from residents of Hendrick Avenue and correspondence / comments from other residents in the H2 One-hour sub-zone reporting problems with non-resident parking outside the existing operational hour.  It is understood that many of these requests have been made due to the displacement caused by the increase of the operational hours in the Clapham Junction CPZ (C4) from one-hour to all-day in February 2019.

The petition requested that the operational hours of the H2 CPZ are increased in line with roads in the H2 and C4 all-day sub-zones, i.e. from the current times of 10.30am to 11.30am to 9.30am to 5.30pm, but to retain the existing operational days, Monday to Friday.

As the petition met the Council’s required criteria, we are now asking you whether you would wish to see the operational hours of the CPZ increased in this area, as described above.

• Increasing the hours of control to ‘all-day’ will not affect the cost of, or require you to obtain a new, resident (or business) parking permit.  
• Pay and display machines would need to be installed in the roads.
• Your visitors would be required to display a resident visitor permit or pay and display ticket (paper or virtual - pay by phone) when parking during the extended controlled hours.

Have your say

Please give us your views by completing the online survey below. If you need a paper copy please contact parkingpolicy@richmondandwandsworth.gov.uk

The Council would like to demonstrate that any change has the support of local residents so a good response is very important.  Please respond to all questions even if you don’t own a vehicle, oppose the CPZ or amendments to it, because parking controls may still affect you or your visitors.

Should you wish to make any additional comments, including support for alternative times / arrangements, you may do so by emailing parkingpolicy@richmondandwandsworth.gov.uk

What next?

A report will be presented to committee taking all relevant factors into account.  We will write to you as soon as we have news of the decision and an update will be provided on the Council’s website here.

Information on how CPZs work including all current parking charges can be found on the Council website here.
