What?s this about not happening in Herne Hill? Get yourself over in the Ruskin Park direction where the day after the introduction of the CPZ there (2009: 12-2pm restrictions) all the commuter traffic shifted over into Southwark, e.g. Red Post Hill and further towards Herne Hill Station on the Lambeth side. Lambeth call it ?displacement?. Additionally a notable amount of resident vehicles now park outside their controlled streets to avoid charges, which seems to be increasing as a function of the charge increases. Lambeth?s advice (2009): a consultation to extend the CPZ? It?s a long game on the part of the Councils?
