Background

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).

The residents of Park View Road have signed a petition raising concerns regarding the high levels of parking by non-residents, which in turn is making it difficult for the residents to find available kerbside space. Furthermore, indiscriminate parking is causing motorists problems driving through junctions. The residents have requested for the inclusion of Park View Road into the existing Church End ‘CE’

Background

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).

The residents of Park View Road have signed a petition raising concerns regarding the high levels of parking by non-residents, which in turn is making it difficult for the residents to find available kerbside space. Furthermore, indiscriminate parking is causing motorists problems driving through junctions. The residents have requested for the inclusion of Park View Road into the existing Church End ‘CE’ Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ).

In response to this, the Finchley and Golders Green 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 the area on whether they would wish for their roads to be part of the nearby Church End ‘CE’ CPZ.

The consultation area includes Park View Road, Park Avenue, Etchingham Park Road (Holdenhurst Avenue to Park View Road), Park Crescent and Holdenhurst Avenue as shown on the drawing No. BC/001544-05-01.

The views received from the residents will help us decide on a scheme that would prioritise parking for the residents and local businesses in the area.

You can view a plan of the proposal here.
