Hillside Road Area Live Consultation

Hillside Road Area Live Consultation Toggle accordion

Hillside Road Area

We are inviting residents, businesses, and stakeholders to provide feedback on early proposals for a possible Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) in the Hillside Road Area including: 

St Peters Road, Hillside Road, Avenue Road, Lemsford Road, Althorp Road, Manor Road, Raymer close, Townsend Avenue.

This informal consultation follows the introduction of CPZs in neighbouring zones, which has led to concerns from residents about displacement parking, where vehicles from adjacent restricted areas migrate into unrestricted streets, such as the Hillside Road area. 

The consultation opened on 15th September 2025 and closes on 6th October 2025.

London Colney 

We are currently reviewing the possible need for a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) in the London Colney area to ensure the parking provision continues to meet the needs of residents, businesses, and visitors. The introduction of a CPZ can include resident permit parking, additional yellow lines, setting a maximum time a vehicle can remain parked (e.g. in bays outside shops), and parking charges.

As part of this review, we will also be asking you as a local resident for your views on Haseldine car park and parking in general, including how long vehicles should be allowed to park there, and what improvements can be made to make the car park better for all.

Your input is vital in helping us understand what is working well and what could be improved.

The consultation will open on 8 September 2025 and closes on 29 September 2025

We have identified a boundary area which we believe includes the current problem areas and the possible displacement area which would be impacted if a CPZ or restrictions were introduced. Please note, this is not the proposed area for a CPZ, just the area we feel, based on current evidence, will be impacted.

Goldsmith Way Proposal

It is proposed to introduce a Permit Parking Area in Goldsmith Way comprising:

  1. Permit holder only parking past this point signing where valid GS permit holders can park in any location where there is no waiting restriction.
  2. Introduce double yellow lines to reinforce Highway Code rules at junctions and bends.
  3. The hours of control will be Monday to Sunday between 8:30am and 10pm.

Statement of Reasons for Making the Order

The Council’s Parking Strategy outlines our aims to deliver an efficient service that provides fair and safe parking across the district to help shape, manage, and deliver the Council’s vision for parking. It sets out how we manage kerbside space to reduce the impact of parking on the environment.

By managing the kerbside set out in the proposal, we will make significant improvements and provide benefits as outlined:

  • The adoption of the road - Goldsmith Way – To ensure their status aligns with the adopted network and can be properly maintained by the highway authority.
  • The introduction of double yellow lines at key junctions is necessary to preserve sightlines and junction visibility, and to prevent obstructive parking, thereby supporting the safe movement of vehicles and pedestrians along the newly adopted road.
  • Increased enforcement – more monitoring and enforcement of restrictions supports fairness and street safety.

St Albans City and District Council continues to work hard to increase efficiency and reduce running costs where possible, the cost of providing parking services should be met from the income received from fees and charges, including permitting schemes for parking on street and the issue of Penalty Charge Notices for motorists who park in contravention.

Experimental Traffic Order - Lyon Way Consultation

Experimental Traffic Order - Lyon Way Consultation Toggle accordion

Any person wishing to comment on this Order may do so from Thursday 23rd January 2025

St Albans City and District Council (pursuant to arrangements made with Hertfordshire County Council) is proposing to introduce new experimental waiting restrictions in parts of Lyon Way, St Albans.

The proposals compromise of:
- Converting sections of ‘No waiting at any time’ (double yellow line) restrictions in parts of Lyon Road, St Albans to single yellow lines.
- Operational hours of the single yellow line will be Monday-Saturday 08:00-22:00.
- Sections of existing ‘no waiting at any time’ restrictions will remain to keep the corners clear from obstruction.
- Care has been taken to restrict parking in locations where it is necessary to safeguard the passage of vehicles, thereby maintaining parking where it is possible to do so.


It is intended that these experimental measures will:
- Increase the available provision of parking places for users of local businesses.
- Reduce instances of inappropriate or inconsiderate parking.
- Maintain access to adjacent businesses by retaining certain sections of ‘no waiting at any time’.
- Improve road safety.

SADC will monitor the effects of the experimental restrictions and may amend the experimental provisions, if considered necessary. St Albans City and District Council will be considering in due course whether the experimental provisions of this Order should be continued in force indefinitely.

Please select the proposal you would like to review from the consultation list. Comments on the proposal can be submitted using the blue Submit Feedback button at the bottom of the map. Alternatively, you can search a proposed restriction by road name using the search bar.

Any Person wishing to comment on this Order may do so from Thursday 19 June 2025.

St Albans City and District Council (pursuant to arrangements made with Hertfordshire County Council) is to introduce a experimental waiting restriction in parts of Latimore Road, St Albans.

The proposals compromise of:

- Converting sections of 'No waiting at any time' (double yellow line) restrictions in parts of Lattimore Road, St Albans to single yellow lines.

-Operational hours of the single yellow line will be Monday-Sunday 08:00 - 18:30.

It is intended that these experimental measures will:

  • Increase the available provision of parking places for residents, visitors and local business in Lattimore Road.
  • Reduce instances of inappropriate or inconsiderate parking.
  • Improve road safety. 

The Experimental Traffic Regulation Order (ETRO) is proposed to enable the Council to ascertain and evaluate the effectiveness of new restrictions in improving the environment for users.    

The ETRO will be utilised to trial the impact of a single yellow line on sections of Lattimore Road and stakeholder feedback received from residents, businesses and visitors will be monitored and assessed. 

This will allow the parties involved the opportunity to make a decision about whether to retain the physical changes on the highway, modify them or remove them and revert to the original layout. 

SADC will monitor the effects of the experimental restrictions and may amend the experimental provisions, if considered necessary. St Albans City and District Council will be considering in due course whether the experimental provisions of this Order should be continued in force indefinitely.

Please select the proposal you would like to review from the consultation list. Comments on the proposal can be submitted using the blue Submit Feedback button at the bottom of the map. Alternatively, you can search a proposed restriction by road name using the search bar.
