In Autumn 2011, consultation leaflets were delivered to all residents and businesses of Controlled Parking Zone V, offering a comprehensive list of options for amendments to their parking controls.

The majority of respondents opted for the current parking controls to remain the same. The table below shows a summary of the consultation results.

Residents did show support for the introduction of Car Club bays in the zone.

What happens next?

There will be no change to the parking controls in Controlled Parking Zone V.

Council engineers carried out site surveys in the area and identified locations for 24 additional parking spaces. In addition, double yellow lines will be introduced at all informal pedestrian crossings points to avoid obstructive parking and to facilitate pedestrians. The Council will also remove around 50 signposts in the area in line with the Borough’s de-cluttering policy.

The Smart Visitor Permit will be made available to all residents for use from 26 March 2012, however, residents of Zone V can apply for the discounted visitors permit before then. For more information or to apply for a Smart Visitor Permit, please apply via the link below:

Cambridge Grove - New Loading Only Bay

In October 2011, the council wrote to residents and businesses seeking views on a proposal to introduce a designated loading only bay at the junction of Cambridge Grove and Glenthorne Road. Overall feedback from the consultation indicated support for the proposal, therefore the council will be implementing the new loading only parking bay which will "go live" on 27th February 2012 under an 18 month experimental Traffic Management Order (TMO).

Please follow this link to the proposal which will be implemented and become operational on 27th February 2012: Cambridge Grove Loading(.pdf 304kb)

Controlled Parking Zone V Review

In November 2011, Hammersmith and Fulham Council reviewed the operation of Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) V through consultation with local residents and businesses.

Zone V is one of the largest CPZs in Hammersmith and Fulham, and is split into two mainly residential areas either side of the commercial areas of Uxbridge Road. Although the zone consists of predominantly residential streets, it is within walking distance of Queens Park Rangers football stadium, Westfield Shopping Centre, Shepherd's Bush market, 3 tube stations, the BBC Television Centre and is home to a number of schools.

The consultation consisted of a number of proposals aimed at striking a balance of protecting residents from parking by visitors for Westfield shopping centre and at QPR football matches, whilst preserving the vitality of the area and facilitating parking for residents' visitors.

The consultation period came to a close on 25th November 2011, feedback from respondents is currently being analysed and will be reported to the Cabinet Member for Environment in January 2012.

Residents and businesses will be notified of any changes to the operation of zone V in the new year.
