Daws Lane, Hammers Lane and “Poets Corner” NW7 - informal parking consultation - phase 1

Overview

In Barnet, like many other local authorities, we have a system of parking bays and parking permits that prioritise parking for local residents, businesses and their visitors and customers. These systems are called Controlled Parking Zones (CPZ).

Residents of Daws Lane have signed a petition raising concerns regarding the high levels of parking on their road by non-residents, which in turn is making it difficult for residents to find available kerbside space. These residents have requested for the inclusion of their section of road in a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ).

In response to this, the Hendon Area Committee has agreed that this issue should be investigated and have decided that an informal consultation be carried out with residents and businesses of Daws Lane, Hammers Lane and the “Poets Corner” roads the area on whether they would wish for their roads to be part of a CPZ.

The consultation area is shown on the plan here.

The views received from the community will help us decide on whether or not the Council will progress a scheme that would prioritise parking for the residents and local businesses in the area.
