Be warned, the current state of affairs with obtaining your permits leaves a lot to be desired, you will be stuck with nowhere to park while waiting for them and you will never ever get a refund for the days/weeks you've paid for but couldn't park outside your own home because the Parking Shop haven't got round to sending you your permits.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/150132#msg-150132 Mon, 16 Jan 2012 12:39:48 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/150067#msg-150067 forum@london-se1.co.uk (boroughonian)
I'm surprised at that,although there is already quite a bit of off road parking to be had ie:raoul rd estate and grange walk,I guess it's only the houses and eldridge court who require road parking spaces.
I know my friend was not impressed with the plans sent to him by SC,narrowing the road,I don't know the full ins and outs so I will bow to thee.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/150067#msg-150067 Sun, 15 Jan 2012 00:36:24 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/149984#msg-149984 forum@london-se1.co.uk (graham) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/149984#msg-149984 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:15:55 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/149981#msg-149981 forum@london-se1.co.uk (boroughonian) SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/149981#msg-149981 Fri, 13 Jan 2012 18:10:00 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/149977#msg-149977 forum@london-se1.co.uk (graham) The turnout in this all postal/email poll was a disappointing 15%, but there was a 81% vote against the introduction (580 of the total 740 respondents)

Thank you for your input. I do agree that this is a subject that would attract many different valid views. I personally have lived in Bermondsey for forty years and have seen the area change a great deal in that time. I would rather not have to pay to park outside of my home but I do think that it is a better option than having to park in the next street.

A lot of the homes covered by this proposed CPZ are now privately owed, having been purchased in the late 80’s and sold off (for big profits) under the Conservative’s right to buy scheme. If you walk around the area you can see the BMW’s and Mercedes outside of theses homes, so two pounds a week should not be too much of a burden (less than the price of a Starbucks coffee).

My understanding is that most of the social housing ie. the Longields, Rouel Road and Lucy Way estates are already covered by estate parking schemes so they would not be adversely affected by the proposed CPZ.

Many of the newer houses (built within the last 10-20 years) off of Rolls Road, Catlin Street and St James Road either have off street parking (within their back/front gardens) or have allocated residents parking spaces so once again they should not be too badly affected.

As much as 10am to midday scheme would be ideal to deter commuters, if the proposed scheme does not match the surrounding CPZ’s, the new scheme would be useless.

The parking problems in the area have got much worse since the start of this year as the likes of B&Q , Argos/Currys and Tesco have introduced automatic camera controlled parking fines, so this has resulted in increased parking in the area.

The above are just my view so it would be good to hear from others in the area.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/137955#msg-137955 Fri, 25 Mar 2011 11:21:24 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/137949#msg-137949 forum@london-se1.co.uk (graham) [url=http://grahamneale.mycouncillor.org.uk/2011/03/16/parking-scheme-consultation-begins/]Link to my blog and info here[/url]]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/137949#msg-137949 Fri, 25 Mar 2011 09:49:14 +0000 http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/137948#msg-137948 forum@london-se1.co.uk (CAPITALKID)

As a resident of Lynton Road I for one would support this wholehearted as the local roads are plauged with weekday commuter parking.

Another problem are older cars (some untaxed) that park for many weeks (sometime months) without moving, these vehicles appear abandoned and often become targets for anti social activities.

There also are a great deal of large vans and small lorries which belong to businesses located outside of the area which use the local roads as long term parking for unused vehicles, these vehicles are often parked on corners which makes crossing the road quite dangerous.

It also makes sense as nearly all roads surrounding the proposed CPZ already have CPZ’s.

Any one else think that it is a good idea? If so, make sure that you reply to the council which can be done online using the link above.]]> SE1 Discussion http://www.london-se1.co.uk/forum/read/1/137948/137948#msg-137948 Fri, 25 Mar 2011 09:27:51 +0000
