Hi mrm1ag1,

Not sure a CPZ would help... I live on Devonshire and found the parking situation pretty tricky Sunday night just gone! I'm not sure what it is about Sundays and DR, but I always struggle to park at the HOP end after around 10pm. I haven't found it quite so bad at other times. I'm not sure why commuters would park here anyway - HOP is zone 3, but they could park closer to Brockley and be in much cheaper zone 2!

35p a day sounds fine when put like that, but given everything is getting squeezed at the moment and that we'd likely have to find that amount in a lump sum... its not such a great deal. Having lived on a couple of streets with CPZs in Wandsworth, it didn't really make any difference - the roads were always packed with permit cars - the problem is that there aren't enough houses with off-street parking and there's not much that can be done about that. I really oppose the idea of a CPZ.

I feel it a width restriction is also out of the question sadly. Not because it wouldn't work, but because of the mobility bus and could feasibly cause more problems as traffic slows to negotiate it.

A one-way at one end of the road would be frustrating, but could be the best solution, dissuading visitors from parking because they'll need to go around the houses (literally) to get there.
