Saunders park view parking

We the undersigned petition Brighton & Hove Council to change the hours of the parking permits along Saunders park view. People that live on the preston barrack site including the new houses on saunders park view, now park along Saunders park view between the current parking restrictions and in the evening and weekends. The preston barracks site is suppose to be a car free development. This has effected the residents that lived here before the development was built. There is very limited parking along Saunders park view which has now been made worse by all the new houses and flats being moved into. It will only get even worse when the newest blocks of flats along the end is opened. The problem has been ongoing and gets even worse at weekends and evenings when you don't need a permit. Parking on double yellows, and in the turning circle has become regular especially at night. If there is no parking along Saunders park view we then have to park the other side of Lewes Road.

Extend the current hours to 24 hours a day 7 days a aweek. Or make them 12 hrs a day including weekends.

The other end of Saunders park view has different restrictions? Why are we included in zone U which is the other side of Lewes road?

This ePetition ran from 18/02/2026 to 25/03/2026 and has now finished.

Council response

Submitted for presentation to Full Council on 26 March 2026.

The petitioner was invited to present the petition to the meeting but did not attend.

Response provided by the Cabinet Member for Transport & City Infrastructure:

Thank you for your petition regarding Saunders Park View. I am sorry to hear about the parking difficulties residents are experiencing in the area.

A review of parking arrangements in Saunders Park View in line with your request would need to be considered as part of a wider review of the whole of Zone U, including the days and hours of operation.

Officers are currently focusing on consultations in other parts of the city, in line with our agreed parking scheme priority timetable. However, the timetable and resources are kept under review to see how priorities can be progressed more quickly. We will look to include Zone U within our plans.

In the meantime, concerns around illegal parking on double yellow lines can be referred to our on-street parking enforcement contractor. I will ask officers to ensure your concerns raised here today are highlighted and action is taken.
