Rectory Road

Parking Services have now reviewed the feedback from the recent consultation held with residents about the proposed introduction of parking controls in roads surrounding Rectory Road Station.

If you live or work in the area you should by now have received a letter explaining the results. If you have not yet received yours you can download a copy from this page or alternatively call 020 8356 8877 to be sent a copy.

We wish to thank all those people who participated in the consultation either by returning their questionnaire or attending our public drop-in session.

Consultation Results

Overall, we received a 27% response to the consultation. Of those people that returned their questionnaire, 58% were against the proposed introduction of parking controls.

Over the entire consultation area, respondents reported differences in their ability to find available parking space. Residents living in streets closest to existing CPZs perceived parking to be the most difficult, while those living further away from existing parking zones experienced less problems.

Consultation Outcome

The Council has considered the current need for parking controls in the area based on results of this consultation, feedback from local Councillors and parking stress surveys conducted in the area.

Based on feedback the Council will not be proceeding with the introduction of a CPZ in the area.

We will however be implementing safety restrictions in the area including adequate levels of junction protection as this was raised as a safety issue during the consultation. Junction protection ensures that motorists will have a clear line of sight when approaching road junctions, improving safety levels for road users.
