The results of the consultation held back in November/December on extending the Old/Road Bankwell Road CPZ are now in. You may remember that it was proposed to extend the existing Old Road and Bankwell Road CPZ so it covered an area of roads off Lee High Road roughly from Murillo Road up to Brightfield Road.
Residents were asked what they thought of the proposal and 208 surveys were returned (22.2% response rate). Of the 208 respondents 125 (60%) were in favour of the proposal to extend the CPZ and 79 (38%) were against. Apparently 4 (2%) of respondents didn’t express a preference or didn’t state which road they lived in.
This CPZ will therefore be going ahead, subject to the results of the statutory consultation (that’s when the official notice appears in the paper and on lamposts etc)

Why are residents of The Zinc Building prohibited from applying for resident’s permits?

Hi David,
I’ve emailed you a more comprehensive explanation, but basically it’s because the developers agreed that as a condition of planning permission, this development would be ‘car free’ – no spaces would be provided and residents wouldn’t be eligible for permits.
