Sutton Council is consulting on parking controls to improve road safety and access.  This should be the final consultation, and it is important that residents look at the detailed proposals on the Council maps and comment.  We reported back on earlier consultations here.

This consultation excludes the Aultone Way/ Greenhill/ Woodend area.  The concerns raised there by residents are still being considered.

The current consultation includes:

• Extending the town centre CPZ fully along Benhilton Gardens
• Single yellow lines (operational 9 to 10am Mon – Fr), with free parking bays, for Rosehill Gardens and for Chudleigh and Longford Gardens (with an extended double yellow line down part of the road), to address the problem of all day parking by non-residents.
• Replacing single yellow lines with double yellow lines, and extending them in some cases, on all junctions, to improve sight lines, access and road safety.

The consultation opens on 31 Oct and closes on 21 November and can be found at the Council website here. 

To find the proposals for your or any neighbouring road access the street directory.  When you select a road, you get a summary of the changes for that road and a link to the relevant map.

There are three maps that cover our area.  Click on the following links to find them quickly:
