Abandon plans to introduce parking charges at out-of-town locations
The Council administration is planning to introduce charges at
out of town centre car parks across the Borough, including those
that serve our parks and children’s play grounds. This is the
full list:
Oaken Grove
Clewer Memorial
Desborough Park
Guards Club Open Space
Sutton Rd, Cookham
High St, Hurley
Haywards Mead, Eton Wick
Bowden Rd, Queens Rd and Upper Village Rd, Sunninghill
Brockenhurst Rd, S. Ascot
London Rd, Sunningdale
Past experience shows what a terrible idea this is — empty
car parks and congested streets causing daily chaos for residents
who will be left with little choice but to request parking permits,
at a cost to them.
The congestion problem will be particularly acute at Oaken Grove,
where the car park is currently used for school drop offs, leading
to hazardous conditions for children walking to and from
school.
As the only payment option will be by smartphone app, the plan is
also discriminatory as those without this technology will be
excluded from using these facilities.
