Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the conditions are reasonable or necessary in the interests of the parking conditions in the area, and consequently highway safety

What decided it

The appellant failed to demonstrate that the existing car parking spaces were not needed by reference to occupancy rates, and removal of eight spaces would cause unacceptable harm to parking conditions and highway safety in an area with limited on-street parking availability.

Framework references: 105

Plan policies cited: Policy T6.1 London Plan 2021, Policy DM30 Croydon Local Plan 2018, Policy DM10 Croydon Local Plan 2018
