Proposed disabled bay outside 19 Bertram Street

Overview

The Council’s proposes to change the parking arrangement outside 19 Bertram Street, to provide a general disabled bay on the site of a now redundant general disabled bay, which is still marked with white lining on street, but the accompanying post is missing a sign. 

These proposals follow a request from a resident for a reinstatement of this general disabled bay. General disabled parking bays are allocated to residents who have demonstrated a need to park close to their home, where existing bays are often occupied and less accessible.

Whilst Camden Council understand that it may sometimes difficult for non-disabled residents to park their cars around Bertram Street, it can be even more challenging for those with disabilities. It is therefore important to provide this dedicated disabled bay to help the resident to live an independent and active life in the local community.

What happens next

Following the completion of the public consultation a decision will be made by the Director of Environment and Sustainability on how to proceed.
