A couple of months ago, Mark Hunter and I met with a Council officer to look at the issue of parking restrictions on Coniston Road, on Gatley’s South Park Road Estate.

We were concerned that the parking restrictions down Coniston Road and the roads off are, to be honest, a bit of a mess.  There are two totally different sets of parking restrictions (some parts have no parking on Saturday mornings, others weekday daytime restrictions).  Other lines seem to have been overpainted so it’s not clear whether they’re single or double and the junction of Coniston with Kingsway isn’t clearly protected from parking.

The Council have now sent out letters asking residents for their opinions.  I’d like to get this right – not to have too many yellow lines where they’re not needed but, at the same time, make sure we stop parking where it needs to be stopped.

If you live in the area and you’ve received a consultation paper, please complete and return it: make your views count and help us make the right decision.
