Petition requesting a solution to parking problems in Monarch's Way, Ruislip PDF 89 KB Additional documents: Minutes: Concerns, comments and suggestions raised at by petitioners at the meeting included the following: § Residents of Monarch’s Way, Ruislip, were seeking a solution to parking problems in the cul de sac § Currently the road was difficult to use for residents § The road was very difficult to use for emergency vehicles. Residents were concerned that should there be an emergency the vehicle may not be able to use the road as an access way § There was a lack of access to residents’ driveways § Residents had difficulty parking their vehicles in Monarch’s Way § Neighbouring roads had implemented a parking scheme which residents believed had lead to parking displacement in the area, with a large influx of parking in Monarch’s Way § Residents had taken a poll amongst them and found that a majority wanted a Parking Management Scheme implemented in the cul de sac.
A Ward Councillor was present and raised the following points at the meeting:
Councillor Keith Burrows listened to the concerns of the petitioners and responded to the points raised. Cllr Burrows said a consultation was a good idea but it was not necessary to include the Chamber of Commerce for a parking issue in this residential road which has been requested by residents. A consultation would allow officers to fully involve the local residents and implement a scheme that residents wanted. Cllr Burrows urged petitioners to use this opportunity to work with officers to implement a scheme that would benefit the cul de sac.
Resolved - the Cabinet Member:
1. Discussed with the petitioners their concerns with parking in Monarch’s Way.
2. Decided a scheme for Monarch’s Way can be added to the Council’s parking scheme programme.
Reasons for recommendation
Although parking schemes are not generally considered for individual roads, due to the isolated location of Monarch’s Way, the Cabinet Member may decide that a scheme could be considered in advance of one over a wider area.
Alternative Options Considered
None.
