Strand on the Green CPZ Review - 2026
Overview
Following consultation with residents and businesses in the Strand on the Green (SotG) controlled parking zone (CPZ) last year, and additional concerns raised regarding the outcome, Hounslow Council is now seeking your views regarding possible changes to the operational times of the CPZ.
The current scheme
The SotG CPZ operates between Monday-Friday, 10am-12 Noon and 6-8pm and Saturday-Sunday, 2-4pm and incorporates Geraldine Road, Hearne Road, Meade Close, Oliver Close, Pyrmont Road, Spring Grove, Strand on the Green, Thames Road (in part) and Waldeck Road.
The initial purpose of these times was to protect local parking provisions in light of the construction of Brentford FC’s stadium and the associated residential aspect of the development.
The proposal
In response to the concerns raised upon completion of the consultation last year, the council are now submitting further CPZ operational times for your consideration. The purpose of this is to hopefully identify a wider consensus amongst residents and businesses as to what the operational times should be.
A variety of different times have been submitted for consideration, as detailed below, in response to feedback gathered from local residents and businesses who represent both those in favour and against changes to the CPZ.
The times put forward for consideration are:
Monday-Friday, 10am-Noon & 6-8pm, + Saturday-Sunday, 2-4pm (the current CPZ times)
Monday-Friday, 10am-Noon, + Event days Monday-Friday, 6-8pm, + Event days Saturday, Sunday & public holidays, 2-4pm & 6-8pm
Monday - Friday: 10am-Noon & 8pm-10pm, + Saturday: 10am-Noon
Monday - Friday: 10am-Noon & 8pm-10pm, + Saturday & Sunday: 10am-Noon
Monday - Friday: 10am-Noon & 8pm-10pm, + Weekend event days, 2pm-8pm
Monday - Friday: 10am-Noon & 8pm-10pm, + Saturday: 10am-Noon, + Weekend event days, 2pm-8pm
Monday - Friday: 10am-Noon & 8pm-10pm, + Saturday & Sunday: 10am-Noon, + Weekend event days, 2pm-8pm
In addition to the above, the council are seeking your views on the possible removal of the ‘maximum stay’ period for pay to park users in the shared-use bays.

When should I expect to hear back from the Council?
All feedback will be summarised and reported to your local ward counclllors along with our recommendations based on the consultation responses.
Once a decision has been made, the results will be published on this page and we will also write to all residents and businesses within the CPZ to provide an update and advise on any next steps. This is anticipated to be in March 2026 subject to no unforeseen delays.
If the consultation outcome identifies support for changes to the CPZ operational times, the council will then undertake formal (statutory) consultation. Residents and businesses will be provided with further information regarding this process in writing should any changes be advanced to that stage.
