Overview

Last year we carried out an informal consultation where those living and operating in the Barnet Hospital area were asked to complete a questionnaire providing their views on parking and how they felt about the introduction of a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ).

The consultation showed that the majority of respondents were not satisfied with their current parking situation. Residents also told us they found it difficult to park in their road due to nearby public or business facilities, and welcomed a further investigation to see if a CPZ would be viable in the Barnet Hospital area.
