Controlled parking zone plan in streets used by commuters
Briefly

Enfield Council has proposed a new controlled parking zone (CPZ) for Sunnyside Road and Leonard Road in Edmonton Green. The initiative, aimed at addressing high parking demands from commuters near Edmonton Green Station, seeks to restrict parking to residents holding permits from 9am to 6.30pm, Monday to Sunday. A consultation process started in May, where residents are invited to provide feedback through a survey before the June 22 deadline. The council argues the CPZ will help alleviate parking pressures, reduce obstruction, and clear abandoned vehicles. Residents will find out about the outcome after the summer.
Enfield Council is consulting on a new controlled parking zone (CPZ) which, if introduced, would see Sunnyside Road and Leonard Road become areas where only residents with a permit will be allowed to park.
The council claims that the CPZ is needed due to high parking demand near Edmonton Green Station from commuters, with several existing CPZs around the area.
Domestic demand for parking space often exceeds capacity in narrow streets, creating competition for limited space. A permit system can help by deterring parking by station users.
Residents are being consulted through a survey about the proposed CPZ, and they will be informed post-summer whether the scheme will proceed.
