Having spoken to a neighbour I learnt of 2 planning applications for flats that most residents rejected were approved by the Council, apparently these developments are adding to the parking problems. Also having looked through the results all roads close to the station where residents do not have their down drive were in favour of a CPZ scheme. Surly some scheme must be tabled to help local residents rather than just developers?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-37138821974103522032009-09-04T22:09:37.746+00:002009-09-04T22:09:37.746+00:00Like all the comments above it is clear that some ...Like all the comments above it is clear that some thing needs to be done in Carshalton to ease the parking problems that are part born from the Council restrictions and planning legislations. What seems clear is that Council workers, policy makers, and Councillors are not Carshalton residents! I just hope that soon some common sense is used and for once someone thinks on behalf of the residents for a change! Any form of CPZ will be most welcome!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-24131606795031730942009-06-19T21:31:14.809+00:002009-06-19T21:31:14.809+00:00I also agree with the comments above.

We love the area but the parking is simply impossible.<br /><br />The unpopular Beechwood Court development (that was neither sustainable or affordable) have made parking on the surround streets completely impossible and with more flats sold this will just get worse. Are there any plans to help the streets around the station?

Personally I feel that doing nothing is not an option as things are simply going to get worse and worse. We once lived in Clapham where a CPZ was introduced for similar reasons with great success I just hope the same happens in Carshalton.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28918367.post-48038912549079517922008-12-21T10:14:00.000+00:002008-12-21T10:14:00.000+00:00TaytolanThanks for the comment.
