Survey on CPZ needs to be completed

Residents in the Little Ealing area have until tomorrow (Friday 10th) to tell the council whether they want a CPZ.

A consultation has been underway to assess whether or not there should be parking restrictions introduced after locals reported increasing problems in the area.

However those in favour of the CPZ say the Ealing consultation information doesn't mention the fact that the neighbouring streets in the borough of Hounslow are expected to vote soon on parking restrictions - which will have a knock on effect locally.

The core area covered (purple) is bordered by Windmill Road, Little Ealing Lane , Ealing Road and Darwin Road. It covers Chandos Ave, Lawrence Rd, Ashmount Terrace Radbourne Ave, Birkbeck Road, Ealing Park Gardens, Junction Road, Murray Road, Carlyle Road)

The outer area (yellow) consists of North Road South Road and Chiltern Road.

The survey asks whether there is parking pressure in the area and what you believe it's caused by.

If a CPZ were to be introduced would you favour hour periods (for eg 9-10am and 3-4pm), all day controls (eg 9-5pm) or day and evening controls (9am-9pm)?

During the hours in which the zone applies parking permits are required- for 2 hours they currently cost £50 per year, all day permits (9-6pm) cost £80.

The last consultation for this area was in 2011 when residents voted against a CPZ.

Core area: 36% of respondents said yes to the CPZ and 64% said no

Outer area: 36% of respondents said yes to the CPZ and 61% said no

A decision on the Little Ealing CPZ is likely to be announced sometime in November.
