Request to implement controlled parking zone: Elms Lea Avenue, Brighton, BN1 6UG
We the undersigned petition Brighton & Hove Council to consider implementing a controlled parking zone on the residential road of Elms Lea Avenue.
Implementing a CPZ on the avenue would primarily prioritise parking for residents and regulate vehicle occupancy. It would also facilitate easier access to driveways for all residents; there are often daily issues where public vehicles block driveways hampering residents' access to and from their properties.
In addition to this, the residents feel that the lack of an CPZ has led to a greater prevalence of abandoned vehicles on the avenue. Not only does this cause residential access issues it has (most recently) resulted in incidents where council officials have had to tackle chemical spills from abandoned vehicles or deal with the burden of vehicle removal.
We respectfully ask Brighton & Hove City Council to consider this proposal.
The residents would be open to discuss CPZ options available (i.e. a Mon-Fri restriction) and work with the council to decide the best option to benefit everyone: be that residents of Elms Lea Avenue and the public. We would be happy for this matter to be discussed at the next available Full Council meeting on 23rd October 2025.
This ePetition ran from 07/06/2025 to 12/10/2025 and has now finished.
