The End of on Street Parking within walking distance of the Etihad

[Corky]

No it was in several areas within Greater Manchester. The M60 was a sort of boundary. It wasn't just Manchester City Council.

That was 10 years before Burnham and before the GMCA existed. The final vote was 2010, and it was being strongly pushed since at least 2007, then Burnham came in 2017 as Major.

It was AGMA back in those days and voluntary cooperation between the 10 districts.

Devils advocate and with someome with relatives who live a stones throw from the ground, the area of East Manchester, well any residential suburb which is post industrial, be it bradford' beswick, clayton, platting , gorton etc were not built with everyone owning a car a a concept, never mind households that have 2-3.

Where my parents live there is barely free parking spaces on non match days on their close and even though they have no car the spot outside their house is occupied daily.

resident zones are necessary unfortunately if honest.

Metrolink park and ride should be pushed, with a standard matchday fare from whichever P&R station used rather than zones (one cheaper than car parking near the ground).

A low lever (3 storey) multi- storey car park, though no longer fashionable as a thing, would be a better build during the holt town regenertion than one of the sets of apartments, with community facities on the ground floor like shops, cafe/coffee shop, bar etc so ot would stil lbe a money maker in close season from rents at least

I think the word "condition" had something to do with it.

Council got complaints from residents and they get a vote.

Why they included industrial areas is harder to fathom.

The daft thing is, restricting the industrial area parking pushes it into residential areas.

The wanker that is Burnham still had the nearside lane all along Chester Road cordoned off. He brought it in as a cycle lane to get people to work. Yeh fucking right. He is now making a bottle neck at Chester Road/Talbot Road for no other reason than to force people out of their cars.

One of my lads used to live on Chester Rd, he said it was mental, nothing 99.9% of time in the cycle lane and cars sat spewing fumes out as they couldn't move.

He kept that lane there for what seemed forever too.

They are round housing but Briscoe lane and round the cemetery aren’t it ridiculous, also short sighted, why not put parking bays in and charge they could’ve made a fortune from concert goers etc, yet they have a 90 min limit, fucking joke.

I lived close to Upton Park for a decade and having a football ground on your doorstep was part and parcel of living in the area. Even with Upton Park, East Ham, Plaistow and other stations around, a number of people would drive and park locally.

If I wanted to get anywhere without traffic or queues then I’d check when they were home and plan accordingly. Matchday fans kept pubs going (a few now closed) and there were jobs created too.

Not their agenda..........get everyone off the roads.

Them Burnham congestion cameras aren't there for nothing either...........matter of time.

Mind you yellow buses makes a massive difference. No bus shelters though sadly on St Albans Avenue as I found out V Burnaly sadly.

Yeah I get that must be a nightmare for residents having people parking in front of their houses for hours, I've even seen people park in front of driveways which is just selfish.
I think people on here a getting at the parking restrictions where there is no houses in the streets, industrial estates etc. they shouldn't be restrictions there, only in front of someones house.

Exactly...............I don't like parking in front of anyones house so never do unless it's for minutes. But Industrial estates, or main roads with no houses.......if it isn't blocking artics etc why the fuck not? If there are issues put yellow lines in those places where there is an issue. Grimshaw lane at the bridge for example.

I agree where there is no houses the restrictions should be not in force.
