Hollybush South

This consultation began in December 2024 following feedback from residents. Hollybush South was added to our 2024–26 Parking Services Work Programme to assess parking concerns in the area.

You can find the list of roads being consulted on the following page.

 

Have your say

We held a survey to gather your views on:

  • Current parking conditions
  • Any issues you’ve experienced
  • What types of parking restrictions or solutions you support or oppose

At this stage, no decisions have been made. This is an early-stage consultation to understand local concerns.

 

What we’re considering

As part of the process, we may look at:

  • Double yellow lines at junctions to improve visibility and safety, in line with the Highway Code
  • Verge and footway parking bans to improve pedestrian access and the overall streetscene

 

Survey status

The online survey was open until Sunday 9 February 2025. The feedback stage was open until Sunday 10 August 2025. We are now reviewing the data.

 

Suggested parking restrictions

No decisions have been agreed yet. The suggestions below are based on survey responses where residents expressed concern about parking issues. We are still seeking feedback to help determine the way forward.

Double yellow lines

10 metres of lines will be considered at junctions where they are missing or may be needed for safety and access.

Verge and Footway Prohibition Order (VFPO)

Parking restrictions are being considered in the following locations, where the carriageway is wide enough and the land is part of the public highway:

  • Hollybush Lane (from the junction of Homestead Lane to the junction of Howlands)

  • Howlands (from Chequers to the Beehive Lane junction)

Advisory Disabled Bays

To apply for a disabled parking bay outside your home, please contact Hertfordshire County Council.

 

Next steps

Once all feedback has been reviewed, we will consider any amendments to the suggested restrictions. If appropriate, we may move forward with a formal proposal of a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) to formally introduce parking restrictions.

A further letter will be sent in Autumn/Winter 2025/26 outlining the next steps and any proposals arising from this consultation.

Further updates will also be available on this webpage.
