Parking/Access in Strode Close and Surrounding Roads

We the undersigned petition the council to take action to control the number of non-resident vehicles parked in Strode Close, Cromwell Road, Pembroke Road and Hampden Road, whether by introducing CPZ or monitoring and restricting the business operations carried out by TL Motors.

With no parking restrictions in the aforementioned streets, the number of vehicles which are being parked by TL Motors has become an increasingly significant issue for us residents. Hundreds of their customers' vehicles are parked up, sometimes left for months on end before being moved, which has made parking near our homes impossible at times. Cars blatantly block emergency vehicle access to the Close by double parking and making access points extremely narrow. Car parks are used as though they are the garage's own land on which to park their customers' vehicles. Recovery vehicles arrive throughout the day and night to drop off customer cars which causes a disturbance due to the noise. Not only is this of great inconvenience to the residents, it is also a major health and safety concern should there be a need for an emergency vehicle to access the area.

This is an issue which gets worse by the day as TL Motor's business increases - something they can afford to do due to a free reign of the streets in the area. We need this situation to be reviewed and addressed by Barnet Council as soon as possible for our peace of mind and the sake of our safety.
