Review Brent Council's parking controls in the KD Controlled Parking Zone Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/review-brent-councils-parking-controls-in-the-kd-controlled-parking-zone.html Online petition signatures en-us Wed, 17 Jun 2026 02:47 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Ms Anonymous [Signature #66] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/21354062?utm_medium=rss Tue, 23 May 2017 12:52:51 UTC 21354062 Mr Noel Kennedy [Signature #65] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/14980762?utm_medium=rss It has seemed inhumane to me that since the inception of residents parking in our street family and friends visiting over Christmas can be faced with a fine for being parked here on Boxing Day. It is not so much that residents' visitors have to provide a parking permit for Boxing Day visitors, as that the obvious preoccupation with the heightened expectations of these two days means that few are likely to give a second thought to there being wardens on duty patrolling our streets. Perhaps around Wembley Stadium there is a need for such a regulation during Bank Holidays, but I cannot see any benefit to residents to have normal parking restrictions maintained a such times. I'm sure that it is a rich bounty of fines collected at these times, but it does not chime with the arguments presented by the Council when these residents' parking zones were being introduced 'to protect our parking spaces from being taking over by suburban commuters driving to the edge of inner London to park close to an underground station.'

A relatively quiet residential street. Parking controls are in force weekdays 0830-1830. Parking is never a challenge on weekdays, and even less so on Bank Holidays.

Nevertheless, Brent council enforces parking charges on all Bank Holidays.

It is highly unusual for parking to be charged on Bank Holidays, so you would think Brent would clearly communicate the policy on the multiple signs on the street which outline the days and times parking restrictions are in force. These signs make no mention that the restrictions are also in force on bank holidays. The only place that this is stated on the street, is on the small print on the parking meters (which if you have a book of resident parking vouchers you don't use!). Alternatively, you can search on the Brent website, but why would you as parking restrictions on bank holidays are so unusual?

This is a parking policy that is very hard to justify as being anything other than a cash raising exercise. It is also very unfair as the restrictions are not clearly marked on the on street parking signs.

It merely results in penalizing family members and friends who are visiting. There are no shops nearby of the sort which might encourage unusual parking patterns during the sales seasons, for example. It is quite against the spirit of public holidays to expect guests to pay to park and to subject as all to the stress of remembering to use parking permits. Please change the scheme.

Insisting on treating bank holidays as normal days confuses visitors and encourages unnecessary parking fines which I am certain is the real reason Brent Council insists on charging over these periods.

It is absolutely certain that none of the residents here ever agreed to this.

Almost as bad is the way our ticket machines demand payment 24 hours a day.I have seen nervous confused motorists purchasing tickets long after parking charge hours are over unlike Camden machines whose text clearly indicates chargeable hours/Days.This issue verges on entrapment and should also be addressed.
