Response details:

Dear Cllr Stephanos Ioannou,

We refer to your constituent concerns regarding parking in Dalrymple Close, N14
We can arrange for our parking contractor, NSL, to carry out ad hoc visits during school start and finish times to monitor the area and take enforcement action against any vehicles found to be parked in contravention.

Our enforcement resources are generally prioritised directly outside school entrances, which may explain why the Civil Enforcement Officer advised that they were unable to patrol other nearby locations at that time. Unfortunately, parking issues around schools during drop-off and pick-up periods are a common concern across the borough, with some motorists choosing to park inconsiderately rather than find alternative legal parking.

If residents witness illegal parking associated with school-related activity, they can report this directly to NSL by telephone on 020 3856 0036 or by email at en01.communications@nslservices.co.uk. NSL will then arrange for an officer to attend the location, subject to availability.
