Yes regularly on the other side(not in the cpz zone )of Melbourne Grove or Elsie Road! But never on a weekend or after 6 pm!

Actually when i spoke to the planning official at the library on Saturday he assured me and quoted me an example of a cpz that had been taken away when it hadnt work. He also advised that a years trial was feasable if enough residents requested it.

I agree Kr988 . Im thinking we seem to have just enough parking in the evening weekday but we dont have enough parking for residents and commuters in the day. Also it may well be several residents dont need their cars in the weekday so dont need a permit.

As I said everyone is really looking after their own needs here. I just want to be able to park on the street I live on. Traders can't park on our road as it is . Surely we should'nt be popping out to our local doctor,cafe and leisure centre in our cars .

First time on the forum but felt compelled to write as a resident on Derwent Grove.The current situation is very distressing for families who have no choice in having to move their car in working hours.I have two small children and regularly have to park on a weekday on another road crossing busy roads with shopping and toddlers to get to my house. Although parking is limitted on the weekend I can always park on my street so I don't understand those of you who feel commuter parking is not a problem. I completely understand those of you who are concerned the same problem will move to their road but you are looking after your own needs as are the residents who live closest to the station and dealing with the nightmare of finding parking every weekday. Instead of slating cpz come up with something else that may work because otherwise families will find it impossible to live in these roads altogether.I for one would consider moving if things don't improve soon.
