Stage One and Two 'combined' consultation - Introduction of parking controls in Zone U Displacement Area (Upper Clapton)

Overview

Parking Services recently consulted and implemented parking controls in nearby roads in the Upper Clapton area in 2018 (Zone U).

Since parking controls were introduced in the above area, we have received a high number of requests and a petition for the introduction of parking controls from residents in your area who are experiencing difficulty with parking due to increased parking stress.

We recognise that the introduction of controls in Zone U has had an impact on parking in your road and other nearby uncontrolled roads. To minimise the impact of parking pressure in these roads, we are consulting residents and businesses in your area to provide them with an opportunity to have their say on the introduction of parking controls.

Parking Services are carrying out a ‘combined’ stage 1 and 2 consultation to ensure that controls are implemented in a timely manner if residents are in favour.

We are requesting your feedback on:

• Support for parking controls
• The proposed design of parking controls for the area

Please see the attached map and leaflet for more information about the area being consulted and the proposed design of parking restrictions.

Please Note: Only original copies of consultation questionnaires will be accepted. We will not accept photocopies of the questionnaires received. If you require any additional questionnaires, please contact us using the details below and a version will be sent out to you. Alternatively, you can also provide your feedback online.
