St Albans Ward Councillor calls on Havering Council to ‘Come Clean’ on car parks.

‘The Council attend to the broken walls of these car parks so I am confused why they don’t clean them. It’s not fair on my residents. Please come clean, Havering Council!’

Councillor Judith Holt is calling on Havering Council to come clean on their responsibility to keep tidy the car parks on the ring-road in Romford.

These small car parks, at the end of George Street, Alexandra Road and King Edward Road in Romford, at their junctions with the ring-road, are, like resident parking spaces, for use only for those who have paid Havering Council for resident parking permits and the car parks have resident parking signs put up by the Council to show such. However, the Council has stopped cleaning them. 

Councillor Holt told the Havering Daily:

“A resident of George Street has kindly cleared the car park more than once recently, but this ought not to be,” said Councillor Holt. “Councillor Joshua Chapman, who used to be Councillor for this area, told me that this car park became neglected a few years ago and the Council had to be gently reminded to clean it. However, I have been asking the Council to do so since October and they tell me that it isn’t their responsibility. Well, if it’s not theirs, whose is it? The Council attend to the broken walls of these car parks so I am confused why they don’t clean them. It’s not fair on my residents. Please come clean, Havering Council!”

Councillor Holt has made a video showing the George Street car park and has provided photographs of the broken wall in King Edward Road.
