Proposed changes to parking restrictions
We’re proposing to make a number of changes to parking restrictions on roads across the district, and would like to hear your views.
| Location | Proposal |
|---|---|
| The Borough, Canterbury | Reduce the restriction on loading on the length of The Borough where it is slightly wider to accommodate some loading at this location. |
| Somner Close, Canterbury | Removal of one parking bay to avoid obstruction of a resident’s drive |
| Zealand Road, Canterbury | Extend the double yellow lines west of the junction with Cambridge Road to prevent parking close to a resident’s drive |
| Knott’s Lane, Canterbury |
Double yellow lines to prohibit parking in the new section of Knotts Lane leading to Cobden Place |
| Palace Street, Canterbury | Make the loading ban enforceable so that loading and unloading are restricted to the loading areas provided |
| General, Canterbury | Increase the cost of Visitor Permits in line with other parking charges and inflation |
| Richmond Street and Hanover Street, Herne Bay | Extend double yellow lines to accommodate access to a new development; create new parking bays in Hanover Street and extend parking bays in Richmond Street to compensate |
| General, Herne Bay | Increase the cost of Visitor Permits in line with other parking charges and inflation |
| Valkyrie Avenue, Whitstable | Make the single yellow line between Grimthorpe Avenue and Sandpiper Road apply seven days a week to prevent parking of large vehicles.
Double yellow lines at the junction of Valkyrie Aveue and Sandpiper Road |
| Sandpiper Road, Whitstable | Double yellow lines at the junction with the rear access road for Goldcrest Walk because parking on the junction obstructs access and visibility;
Single yellow line applying every day of the week at the junction with Valkyrie Avenue to prevent parking on the junction |
| General, Whitstable | Increase the cost of Visitor Permits in line with other parking charges and inflation |
| Highgate Road, Whitstable | Proposed pavement and verge parking ban |
