Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) ‐ FAQ  

We have tried to answer some commonly asked ques ons about how Controlled Parking Zones work, as well some ques ons that may arise specically to your zone. If you have any addi onal queries, or require clarica on on any of the informa on provided within this consulta on document, you may contact us using the details provided on the next page.

Zone Entry Zone Exit

What about yellow lines?

Double yellow  lines are usually placed around  junc�ons and operate 24 hours a day  ‐  ’No Wai ng at Any me’. Any Single yellow lines in the zone will operate during the same �mes as the CPZ. No signs are required for the single yellow lines; road users are advised to refer to the zone entry sign for the opera�ng �mes of single yellow lines.  

When will the CPZ operate?

The opera�onal �mes of the zone are dependent on the results of this consulta�on. Residents are asked to iden�fy what they feel are  the main cause of parking pressures  in  the area. From  the  responses  received, we are able  to determine  the most   suitable opera�ng hours to tackle the cause.  

Can the parking controls be changed once they have been introduced?

Once the CPZ is implemented, we will monitor its opera�on for the rst few months. During this �me, we welcome residents to  raise any concerns  they may have or  requests  for  restric�ons  to be changed. Certain  restric�ons may  then be altered  if   necessary and/or feasible. 

Are CPZs just a way for the Council to generate income?

This is a common misconcep�on. By law, any money raised from implemen�ng a CPZ must be reinvested in transport related improvements throughout the borough. This includes general highway maintenance and road resurfacing.  

Permit Holders

Please note, the mes shown on these signs are for example only. The opera ng mes of the zone will be determined by this consulta on. ! 

Where will zone operate?

Please refer to the enclosed plan. The roads highlighted in yellow will form the zone. The parking bays highlighted in red will be   allocated for zone permit holders.  

How will I know if I am in the zone?

Zone Entry and Exit signs will be erected around the area to inform road users of when they are entering and exi�ng the zone.   Parking bays within the CPZ will be accompanied by Permit Holders signs.

Please specify below: 

Commuters

Shopping Centre / High Street

School / College etc

Business / Industrial Centre

From your response, we will be able to determine the most effec�ve opera�ng �mes for the CPZ. For example, if you feel the main cause of parking pressure is commuters, it may be that 2 hours of opera�on will be sufficient to alleviate this. Whereas being in close proximity to a shopping centre may require a CPZ that operates all day.
