2016
Here we are, 10 years on from the first attempt of Haringey council to introduce a CPZ into the west side of the borough and true to form the spread and cost of CPZ – keep going up and up, despite knowingly running a huge budgetary surplus – Haringey annual parking and traffic enforcement 2014-2015 reports “Excess income over expenditure (Parking Surplus) £9,427,424” This will no doubt will grow even further once Hornsey and Muswell Hill zones are added to the mix immanently.

Residential permits:
The price of residential CPZ permits across London vary from as little as £25 to as much as £130 a year, with no concessionary rates. The introductory price of £25 will only last as long as the council is in the process of implementing Transport For London (TFL) Parking Control (PC) policy everywhere in the borough. It is used to incentives residents to accept it. Current price could go up by 4 times and more, as demonstrated by other London boroughs who reached a state of CPZ completion.
When Haringey decides to put CPZs permits price up, do you think you are going to consulted on it?
If you are undecided about the pros and cons of CPZ, before taking pen to consultation form please consider the TRUE long term cost of the CPZ residential and visitors permits – It is likely that prices could go up to about £130 a year per car. If you are a family with 2 cars you could be looking at £260 or more, (at some places in London, the cost of second car’s permits are significantly higher then the first.)
There is another reason why the price is low while CPZs are being introduced. Transport for London (TFL) which is responsible for the CPZ policy provides funds for local councils to implement the CPZ policy everywhere in London. To qualify, councils applying for funds must show they do not have revenue surpluses from existing CPZs Read it for yourself -> Borough Spending Plan, Submission Guidance, 2005/06 – 2007/08 (pdf) Page 62-67 Paragraph 19 -19.15
Visitor’s permits: The cost to park your own car is not the only cost. If you are a social animal with friends from outside your area, or you are dependent on people coming to see or care for you, you will have to provide your visitors with pre paid Visitor permits, to enable them to park near your home. Depending how often this takes place, at current prices you looking at a much greater cost then your own permit. Using your annual quota of visitor permits you are looking at up to £940 a year.
If you want to have a better idea of the true cost of your visitor’s permits, look at the last 12 month in your diary and add all your visitors up, before you decide – “Oh it’s not too bad, really…” – and remember this is likely to be only an ‘introductory’ price – it too could quadruple once CPZs are all over Haringey!
When someone is visiting you over the weekend regardless of whether they are staying for the whole duration or not you are going to use your weekend visitor permits. What happens when you run out of your weekend permits? You start using the 2 hour permits that you have left… What if your family visits for 3 days during the week? Would you use the 2 weeks permit? What happens when your 3 year old child is having a birthday party and you have 30 guests even if you have it in your community centre, it too is within the CPZ and have not been consulted!
Think about all of it before you say yes to the CPZ.
And let’s not talk about the fines…+£££££££££££££…
