Implementation of Controlled Parking Zones (CPZ) Boroughwide

Decision:

a.  Approved the use of Controlled Parking Zones with resident permit schemes as outlined in the report, following the statutory consultation, as the Council’s standard approach for the provision of parking restrictions.

 

b.  Delegated authority to the Executive Director for Place and Communities, in consultation with the Lead Member for Transport and the Local Environment, to consider any objections received following the statutory consultation and to make the necessary traffic regulation orders to determine the final scheme for each location.

 

c.  Approved the Parking Permit Policy provided as Appendix A

Minutes:

The Lead Member for Transport & The Local Environment introduced a report that set out why the Council should move from an ad-hoc approach for the provision of parking restrictions to the use of Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) wherever practicable.

 

Implementation of CPZs would include public consultation in each case but the aim was to have a standard approach for the provision of parking restrictions to bring consistency.  The Cabinet discussed that Colnbrook should be prioritised under the approach given the significant parking issues caused by its proximity to Heathrow Airport.

 

After due consideration the recommendations were approved.
