People will only vote to pay for parking in their own street if the status quo is unacceptable. That's obvious. The only way to introduce controlled parking (a Strategic Land/Use Transportation Policy in London) is to do it street by street where conditions are so bad residents will probably support it. This may seem v unfair on nearby residents who may be affected but if you think about it, it it the only way it can be implemented. Its the "least worst way" if you like. Consulting over a wide area where most roads are unaffected will always result in no change. CPZ's are a green policy intended primarily to reduce car usage and not just to keep residents happy. LBH and other Boroughs are required to encourage their introduction. |
