Erekrose, I too have concerns about CPZs and the often rigid way they are introduced. However, there might be a sensible compromise for roads being used as all-day commuter parking by people using stations on the new Overground extension. A CPZ that operates Monday-Friday between 12noon and 2pm would clear away the all-day commuter and cheeky holiday parkers while allowing people several hours free parking morning and afternoon for shopping or for business in the area. Paid-for parking should be available between 12 and 2pm, and residents' permits and visitor permits should be low priced to reflect the limited nature of the restrictions. Herne Hill introduced this system for roads close to the station and it seems to work well and fairly.
