I doubt very much any CPZ vote would ever be successful as we have a large number of houses on these streets with off-street parking who will vote against it.

We need to start rewarding householders who preserve the streetscape, perhaps a reserved space for those who don't spoil their garden or reverse the process, people who build over their gardens tend to take the spot outside on the street anyway so why not people who don't .

I live in the swimming pool car park so I welcome anything that reduces the number of commuter and pool cars parking and the noise and congestion that it has brought. I am not against people driving to the swimming pool/gym but I do think that the number who drive is surprisingly high if they are local as we have 3 bus routes and the overground serving Dartmouth road not to mention cycling or walking to it.
