High Street, Bovingdon - Introduction of parking restrictions

Proposed introduction of parking restrictions in the High Street, Bovingdon

Our Parking Services team are working with our conctracted consultancy ADL Traffic and Highways Engineering Ltd to consult residents and businesses on proposals to alter the existing parking arrangements on High Street, Bovingdon.

Concerns had been raised about the turnover of spaces in the existing designated parking bays outside the shops on High Street, Bovingdon. Vehicles were often waiting in the bays for long periods of time, resulting in lack of spaces for shoppers to use.

The proposals

The proposed alterations to the existing parking arrangements on the High Street are shown in the attached documents and outlined below:

• Introducing a loading-only bay (no return within one hour), Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm.
• Introducing a disabled badge holder bay (three hours, no return within one hour), Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm
• Introducing no waiting at any time parking restrictions indicated by double yellow lines
• Introducing limited waiting bays (two hours, no return within one hour), Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm, on the north-eastern side of High Street and in front of the shops on the south-western side of the carriageway.
