Community and Residential Parking Provision, Spon End

We the undersigned petition the Council to urgently provide sufficient parking promised to the community and residents as part of the Spon End Road widening scheme that was completed nearly two years ago. Previous on-street parking outside residential properties and shops on Spon End was taken away to allow for the widening of Spon End as part of the air quality works the Council undertook. These plans included provision of replacement car parking on the site of Godiva Carpets, Unit 5, Arches Industrial Estate, CV1 3JQ which has not materialised. It’s lack is now causing extreme pressure in the area and a major nuisance to the functioning of the community including shops, businesses and Bethel Church.

For example, during functions such as weddings at Khushi’s (Railway Bar and Grill), vehicles are parking on double yellow lines alongside the venue and beyond. The development of the Old Dyers Arms and changes planned at the rugby club in Spon End will exacerbate the local parking difficulties.

This ePetition runs from 14/04/2025 to 10/06/2025.
