Overview
In June 2017 we carried out a statutory consultation on proposed yellow line waiting restrictions in the Temple Fortune area. The findings were reported to the Finchley & Golders Green Area Committee in November 2017 who decided that overall, parking restrictions should be introduced, but with some proposals that would require further discussion with ward councillors.
We acknowledge that a significant amount of time has now passed, and have decided it would be beneficial to consult with the local community again on the proposed measures, especially as parking in the area may have changed since the original consultation.

Overview
In June 2017 we carried out a statutory consultation on proposed yellow line waiting restrictions in the Temple Fortune area. The findings were reported to the Finchley & Golders Green Area Committee in November 2017 who decided that overall, parking restrictions should be introduced, but with some proposals that would require further discussion with ward councillors.
We acknowledge that a significant amount of time has now passed, and have decided it would be beneficial to consult with the local community again on the proposed measures, especially as parking in the area may have changed since the original consultation.
We have taken into consideration the current COVID-19 outbreak, however we feel it is appropriate for this consultation to continue as given the current situation, many of our residents are at home and can therefore fully participate. Please rest assured that the delivery of this consultation adheres to all social distancing rules and government guidelines.
We are proposing to introduce double yellow lines at various locations experiencing obstructive parking. The aim is to prevent obstructive parking, improve traffic flow, maintain sightlines and improve road safety. The double yellow lines would also allow safer crossing points for pedestrians at the locations.
The introduction of the restrictions would mean that motorists would not be able to park on the yellow lines at any time, although continuous loading and unloading would be allowed for up to 40 minutes if no obstruction is caused.
