Report ES14043

Members considered a proposal for the introduction of waiting restrictions at Edward Road, near Sundridge Park railway station. The road experienced heavy parking at its southern end nearest its junction with Plaistow Lane.

The proposed scheme (drawing number 11588-01) sought to balance the various parking needs of residents, visitors and commuters. It was subject to formal consultation with residents, the outcome of which was outlined in Report ES14043.

Noting a number of walls and fences along Edward Road, the Chairman highlighted the importance of the scheme complying with the Flank Boundary Parking policy outlined in Report ES14057 “Parking Controls in Residential Areas”. The Portfolio Holder considered that the scheme did not protect the Flank Boundary policy and, as such, would support the scheme being looked at again. The Chairman recommended that the report be referred back to officers for further consideration.

RESOLVED that the Environment Portfolio Holder be recommended to refer the scheme back to officers for further consideration, to ensure that it fully complies with the Flank Boundary Policy outlined in Report ES14057 “Parking Controls in Residential Areas”
