Parking Review

We have been "trailing" this parking review for ages - ever since it was promised before Xmas! At last we have received this message from the Cabinet member for Sustainability:

Dear colleagues

As part of the Parking Policy Review (PPR), and as agreed at Cabinet on 7^th December 2011, a public engagement exercise will take place for a period of four weeks starting from today, to gauge opinion on issues relating to the size, days and hours of control of Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs), as well as on the maximum stay in pay and display bays.  I would welcome your views on this issue and ask that you send your comments to parking.review@camden.gov.uk

The results of the consultation will inform where changes may be required to CPZ days and hours of control to respond to changing parking demands and lead to the development of a work programme of CPZ reviews.  A report outlining the consultation responses will be considered later in the year, outlining any options for change.  It is also proposed that this will be considered by the Culture and Environment Scrutiny Committee. 

This questionnaire is being undertaken as part of the wider Parking Policy Review (PPR).  Some changes have already been implemented and details about these can be found on the PPR web page at www.camden.gov.uk/parkingreview.  

The questionnaire will be available for anyone to respond to, but direct notification will be sent to the groups below:

- Residents’ and Tenant’s Associations;

- Businesses (through business forums and monthly e-newsletter)

- minority groups such as those representing the disabled and elderly;

- individuals who have previously requested changes to CPZ hours.

The questionnaire is available on the Council’s web site for public consultation on the following link: http://www.wearecamden.org/

                                  

Hard copies of all documents can also be obtained by emailing parking.review@camden.gov.uk (although please consider whether you really need a hard copy as we wish to keep printed material to a minimum).  The public consultation ends midnight on Monday 18 June 2012.

If you have any questions about the consultation or would like further information, please contact:
