I am not sure you are correct but do appreciate the problem.

East Dulwich had to my knowledge more restrictions than Forest Hill and seems to be thriving.
I have lived in SE 23 for 59 years. Although had a car for last 30 years I never ever used it for shopping locally. It was quicker and more relaxing to walk.

Surely there are enough people within 1 mile of the town centre to sustain many businesses, without having to utilise a motor vehicle. Think of the environment plus your health.

I appreciate if you live in Waldensham Rd must be a problem , but great exercise walking up Taymount Rise.

I live at Perry Vale end of Dacres Road and would welcome parking restrictions. At evenings and weekends possible 1 or 2 cars in spaces for about 20 or so. From 7.45 weekdays full up with people using the station. Result we have delivery difficulties. Even funeral cars had to park in middle of the road. Why oh why cannot these people walk to the station and get fit.

Where do you suggest the council release more road space for free parking apart from Waldenshaw Rd.
London Rd under TFL
Dartmouth Rd far to narrow for any cars to be parked in my opinion as major bus route.

Where else?
