Phase 1 is for just the congestion charge zone, but you're right it then will be the whole of East Dulwich..

Drove through Grove Hill Road this morning to go Sainsburys and there were parking wardens about, one taking details of a car parked up on the new CPZ which probably shouldn't be there if they had read the signs. It's Christmas Eve but the wardens are out there sometimes!

Southwark do post out permits to residents in CPZs but as long as you've done it all on-line there really is no need to display the permit. I don't.


We've had a CPZ for nearly two years and talking to the people who whizz about checking on vehicles, it's all done on-line and they get to know after a while who are residents, visitors, etc.

Does anyone know the extent of this CPZ? We had a letter a little while ago, but as I don't own a vehicle, I put it to one side. But we are having visitors at the weekend who will be driving, so I'm trying to decipher it all.


We are in Petworth House, so off Pytchley Road. There are no signs or markings (it's one crazy free-for-all out there), and no cars seem to have permits in the windows. I'd always parked here without anything before this (with a hire car or visitors), but am not unsure if I need a permit?


Looks like Pytchley Road itself is permitted, but there is no info whatsoever on the Council site, that I can see at least, as to what is happening on the estate.

the_greeno,

If you mean parking in the public street, then it will not be on the estate parking system. The estate parking officers may have no connection with or knowledge of street parking controls.

CPZ permits are not now displayed in the car window.

Any parking controls in place will be displayed on road markings and signs on posts.

Anyway you have now realised that it is not only car owners who are affected by CPZ's

Hi Mark


I've lived in plenty of areas with CPZ's in the past, so am well aware of the issues for those with and without cars. My problem here was that the info available was not clear - and was hard to clarify. I was interested in the estate parking, and had called/emailed the relevant contacts beforehand, only getting through today.

    • Whilst I completely agree with the first part of your post, I think it's a terrible waste of council workers' time (and our council tax money) to be coming out to clear up individual instances of dog crap. I don't know what the answer is. I don't know why there don't seem to be dog crap bins any more, but even if there were I doubt if these dog owners would use them if they aren't picking up the crap in the first place. I can't remember why dog licences were scrapped? If memory serves they used to be seven and six in old money. Maybe it wasn't cost effective to run the system, but maybe it would be if they cost a lot more. I think dog training should be mandatory as well. I think a lot of people acquired dogs during Covid who maybe hadn't had one before, as the number of dogs around ED seemed to greatly increase around then. On the other hand, I do think most dog owners train their dogs and pick up after them. Unfortunately it's those who don't who we notice.
    • Why did you feel the need to post that? Have you actually read the rest of the thread?
    • He lived in my road, so I bumped into him quite often, but I knew him as Mick, not Mike. We originally met at the opening of The Actress. Crikey, how long ago that seems now. He had a fox in his window 🤣 Not a real one, obviously. I only found out that he had died because I hadn't seen him around for a while,  so I mentioned it  on our road WhatsApp group, and someone on there told me. He had been ill for some time, but he was just in the middle of what must have been extremely expensive private  dental treatment (a lot of implants) so I assume his death was sadly unexpected.
    • Not in the same position but are you able to access the physical meter to take your own readings ? You could do this as frequently as you wanted to. I think TW are rolling out smart meters that don’t need to be physically read by them, and perhaps that’s what you have. I think that TW will only change your monthly direct debit once every 6 months, when you get the official statement.
