Update 20 May 2016
Following Cabinet Member approval to proceed with implementation of the CW2 CPZ, street works are scheduled to commence from 6 June 2016 for a period of 1 week, weather permitting. Work will be carried out between 8am and 4.30pm. To allow the works to be carried out as quickly as possible, temporary parking restrictions may be introduced, although parking" cones and signs will be in place to indicate the areas where parking would be prohibited. By doing so, this will keep the roads free of parked vehicles allowing a smooth transition of the works. Vehicles would be allowed back onto the road once the lining work is complete or after the working day.
Notices and cones will be placed in your road 12-48 hours prior to work being undertaken.
The CW2 CPZ is scheduled to come into operation on 11 July 2016.

Update 4 December 2015
The Council is now carrying out a statutory consultation on its intention to make changes to the operating days, times and zone boundary of Valley Gardens, North Gardens and South Gardens in the existing CW CPZ.
Proposed changes
- To remove Valley Gardens, North Road and South Gardens from the CW CPZ and create a stand alone CPZ. The new CPZ will be known as CW2.
- The proposed operating days and times of the new zone would be Monday to Saturday between 8.30am and 6.30pm.
- The operating days and times of the single yellow lines in the these roads would also be extended to operate Monday to Saturday, between 8.30am and 6.30pm.
The proposed changes will prevent permit holders to park in CW2 but it also means that CW2 permit holders will not be able to park in CW zone. The removal of CW permit holders will improve parking conditions for the proposed CW2 permit holders. Permits issued to residents and businesses in Christchurch Road will not be valid in the new zone.
For further information see the link below to the statutory consultation documentation.
Representations in regards to the proposals described in this Notice must be made in writing to the; Head of Street Sustainable Communities, Merton Civic Centre, London Road, Morden, Surrey, SM4 5DX or email trafficandhighways@merton.gov.uk
Representations must reach the Council by no later than 31 December 2015 quoting reference ES/CW2. Objections must relate only to the elements of the scheme that are subject to this statutory consultation.
