15 October (Part 1) - Bexley Council accelerates war on motorists. Parking fees more than doubled
Next
time you hear Bexley Conservatives bleating on about the unfairness of Sadiq
Khan charging £12·50 a day to move your car from the kerbside you will know that
the spiteful crew is totally insincere.
From next month they will charge £15 to stop by the Abbey Wood kerbside. A 114%
increase on the previous outrageous price.
Not long ago they said at a public meeting that a 30% across the board
increase
was neither here nor there. What is 114% in their book?
Presumably such a charge will drive yet more motorists to park beyond the
existing Controlled Parking Zone boundary and my road will look even more like a lorry
park. Four large Transits there yesterday.
Labour Greenwich Council has taken steps to counter this Crossrail inspired blight on
residents’ lives by extending their CPZ. In criminally inclined Tory Bexley; nothing, zilch, nada.
Nothing except that Belvedere Labour Councillor Sally Hinkley has taken up the
cudgels on residents’ behalf.
And been rewarded with, well sod all, so far.
Bexley Tories. Liars who are not one bit worried about the cost of living.
