Simon4360 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Hi, I've recently moved into a property on North Cross Road, East Dulwich. I don't have a car in London so parking is never a consideration for me, but this weekend I have family coming to stay with me. I'm wondering where I am best to instruct them to park as the market will be on on Saturday?ThanksSimon Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/167874-weekend-parking-north-cross-road/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Barber Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Hi Simon4360,The market operates on North Cross Road between Lordship Lane and Archdale Road - so any where out side that area within the normal restrictions of yellow lines and corners.

treehugger Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Perhaps because they want to use the crowdsourced knowledge of the forum?

Pugwash Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 It is virtually impossible to park anywhere in the vicinity of NorthX Rd, CP Rd and any of the side streets on a Saturday. Suggest you consider Darrell and Hindmans Road.

This road and others nearby do not exist solely for your convenience.I dare say, you will be legally parked, and 'entitled' but thoughtful and considerate clearly does not factor.nor your unnecessary and nasty put down of Pugwash's parking skills and helpful suggestions.

rendelharris Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Some people really need to find something better to do than trolling perfectly reasonable requests with abuse - and going through the classifieds offering people 25% of the asking price...it's sad.

Sorry for my tone coming across as rude, I was simply trying to help.

Pugwash Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 During the week you may be lucky to find a parking spot on CP Rd but rarely on a Saturday Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/167874-weekend-parking-north-cross-road/#findComment-1178798 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those people probably include parents with small children having to carry the children and all their paraphernalia from their car to their house; people with heavy things which they find it hard to carry a long way; people with mobility problems which aren't severe enough to qualify for a disabled parking space; people having to make several trips to and from their car with luggage, shopping etc..Do you not find something a bit wrong with that? Especially given that the residents of CPR are not able to park in your road.To be clear: I am not suggesting that only people who live in CPR should park there. I am suggesting that to park there night and day when you could quite easily park in your own road with a small amount of effort on your part is ..... well, you decide.Or is there something I've missed here?
