Ealing Council is suggesting to change its remaining short-stay free parking spaces called ‘stop and shop’ into stop and shop+ parking spaces.
What’s new:
- 30-minutes of free parking at all stop and shop+ spaces around the borough
- customers must register their parking session with PayByPhone, either via the app or by calling them
- ability to extend parking session quickly and easily via PayByPhone, with standard parking tariff rates applying after the free 30 minutes
The council is suggesting this to:
- prioritise customer parking outside shops, allowing for more flexibility on length of stay
- encourage turnover for local businesses
- making parking fairer and more consistent around the borough
- encourage more people to walk, wheel, cycle or use public transport when they can
What will happen next?
A statutory consultation will run from 23 April to 14 May, and residents and businesses can contact the council via email to trafficnotices@ealing.gov.uk or by post to Highways service, Perceval House, 14-16 Uxbridge Road W5 2HL to highlight any unique circumstances or concerns relating to the proposed changes. Please quote reference P004B-25
This consultation period meets the statutory 21-day requirement. After it closes, the council has allowed a further 14-day review phase to ensure that all responses are properly considered before any decision is made.
