Parking bays on Talgarth Road are being temporarily suspended by Transport for London (TfL).
TfL is suspending the bays so that is can carry out ‘footway investigation works’.
Parking along the westbound A4 Talgarth Roadwill be suspended in phases between 13 August and 12 September.
TfL says that early assessments show the area, between West Kensington and Barons Court tube stations, may not be able to withstand the weight of parked cars. As a result, TfL needs to suspend the parking bays temporarily so they can explore the extent of the problem.
Dana Skelley, TfL’s Interim Director of Road Network Management, said, “There is a risk that in its current condition, the footway along Talgarth Roadmay not be suited to withstand the weight of parked vehicles and we need to investigate this further. We apologise for any disruption this necessary work may cause and we will carry them out as quickly and unobtrusively as possible.”
