(NOTE:- This notice is about proposals to reduce an existing on street parking place in Mervan Road and the conversion of an existing on street parking place to a loading place in Old Town. Objections may be made – see paragraph 6.)

1. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that Lambeth Borough Council propose to make the Lambeth (Brixton ‘B’) (Parking Places) (No. *) Order 200*, the Lambeth (Clapham) (Parking Places) (Revocation No. *) Order 200* and the Lambeth (Loading Places) (No. *) Order 200* under sections 6, 45, 46, 49 and 124 of and Part IV of Schedule 9 to the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, as amended.

2. The general effect of the Orders would be to:-

(a) revoke an existing shared-use residents’/pay and display parking space in Old Town, so as to provide a new loading place in Old Town, on the north-east side between No. 59 Old Town and a point 9.4 metres north-west of the north-western kerb-line of Wingate Square which would operate at any time for the purpose of loading or unloading vehicles;

Funding has been identified for a design study to revive the ‘Clapham Gateways project’ which was shelved in 2002 when Lib Dems and Conservatives took control of the council.

The funding will help develop a vision for Clapham Old Town, Clapham Common Station Island and The Pavement that joins them. A bid to develop this ‘area-based scheme’ has been placed with Transport for London and if successful this will result in the development of conceptual and detailed designs with implementation possible in 2011.

The project aims to radically improve the quality of Clapham’s public space. Your local Labour councillors have been working long and hard with officers to put the focus back on this neglected project and bring it back to life following much early work with the town centre board and local people.

Keep logging in to hear if the bid is successful and how you would be able to help us make our neighbourhood even more special than it is already.
