The proposals involve introducing full-time parking controls be implemented in Dysons Road, Heybourne Road, Leeside Road, Park Avenue Road, Willoughby Grove, Willoughby Lane and Willoughby Park Road. These roads to be included within a new (WL) CPZ, with parking controls operating, Monday to Friday 8am to 6.30pm to sit alongside existing event-day parking controls

Reasons for the decision

The Council is required to consider the feedback received during the statutory consultation periods, particularly any objections to the proposals, prior to its implementation. The proposal consulted upon is aimed at improving parking opportunities for residents and businesses in the proposed Willoughby Lane controlled parking zone area and introduce effective management of kerb side space ensuring safety and accessibility.

Alternative options considered

An alternative is to not introduce parking controls in Willoughby Lane area. This is not recommended as there is a clear need for parking controls, and this is supported by a majority of residents who responded to the public engagement undertaken in June 2024. This decision aligns with Haringey’s CPZ policy.
