Imposition of controlled parking with yellow lines reducing available parking in this area will send a signal that Southwark has no concern for the safety of women in Southwark
Please may I once again express my strong opposition to controlled parking in the North Dulwich Triangle.
Here on Beckwith Road our main parking issue is during the night, NOT during the day. From 7 or 8pm onwards, it becomes increasingly difficult to park anywhere in this or nearby roads.
If controlled parking was imposed, yellow lines would decrease the number of places to park at night, making our lives not just difficult, but impossible. As a woman, I am deeply concerned that I might be unable to park anywhere near my home when returning from a late event, forcing me to walk through dark streets alone.
We are aware that controlled parking has been implemented in the areas surrounding us, and perhaps late night parking is less of a problem in these areas. While Beckwith Road does suffer from commuter parking during the day, it is merely an annoyance.
A reduction in available parking at night is a threat to our health and safety..
