We asked whether residents in the existing ‘Zone T’ parking zone and an extended area bounded by Old Kent Road, Meeting House Lane and Sumner Road, wished to see parking controls implemented.
The majority of respondents stated a preference for parking controls, and noted that they experienced considerable parking pressure. The majority also wanted this to operate Monday-Friday during the day.
We made a recommendation to the decision maker to proceed with an extended parking zone, to operate Monday-Friday 8am-6.30pm. This has been agreed, subject to statutory consultation over winter 2022, will be implemented in Summer 2023.
The results of this consultation have been published and can be viewed here
We are proposing to implement parking restrictions to prioritise parking for residents and businesses in the streets south of Old Kent Road.
At the same time we would like to review the existing parking restrictions in Trafalgar zone (T). Permit requirements were removed in 2006 and we would like to determine whether this arrangement still works or whether we should reinstate the permit requirements.
We commenced this consultation back in March 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we postponed the proposals to ensure all stakeholders could be involved. We are now recommencing the consultation which means that you should respond even if you responded to the original questionaire.
A map of the proposals can be found in the Related Documents section of this page.
Old Kent Road is preparing for significant development over the next decade, including up to 20,000 new homes, linked with the proposed Bakerloo Line Extension. This means the surrounding area are going to see an increase in demand for parking.
In particular we want to know whether you support parking restrictions in your street, and the hours you would like to see them in operation.
We would be grateful if you could take the time to review the proposal included in this online consultation and let us know what you think via the online questionnaire.
Your views are really important to help us make sure the final design meets the needs of the local community.
We are also currently consulting on the road changes in the North Peckham area, to have your say on that consultation please visit: North Peckham Streetspace
The responses to this consultation will be evaluated and will contribute to the final design phase. This will be submitted to the Cabinet Member for approval, subject to the outcome of statutory consultation.
