Roe Green Close

Roe Green Close Parking Consultation

The road was previously included within the wider High Dells and Hilltop parking consultation that took place between 2021 and 2023, which formed part of the Council’s programme of resident permit parking schemes across Hatfield South West. Further details can be found in the committee report.

Following that consultation process, Roe Green Close was not taken forward for inclusion within the B26 permit zone due to representations made by residents.

Since the scheme was introduced in June 2023, a petition had been submitted by residents requesting that the road be reconsidered for inclusion within the existing permit zone, primarily due to parking displacement from the University. This was considered by CPPP and the road was added to the 2026/28 PSWP, and is the first project within the new programme

In response, a parking survey letter will be sent to all properties in Roe Green Close to establish the current level of resident support for parking controls in order to determine whether changes to parking controls in the road are still desired by residents. At this stage, no decisions have been made on parking restrictions, the decisions will be based on the feedback gathered from residents. We would like to stress the importance of giving your views on the parking situation in the road as we will be moving on to the next area in our works programme after completing our consultation and may not be returning to re-consult for several years

Survey

The parking consultation survey opened Monday 27 July 2026 and closes Sunday 27 September 2026. Take part in the online survey.

Please note that creation of parking bays on highway land, road safety, speed limits, drainage and road surface conditions are the responsibility of Hertfordshire County Council and not Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council.

Vehicle hardstands and crossovers

The parking consultation applies to the public highway and the budget cannot be used to provide crossovers or driveways.

Next steps

We will review the consultation survey data, which may include internal meetings with ward councillors. Further details will be published on this page during Autumn/Winter 2026. We would send a letter to all residents setting out any ideas for parking restrictions also to seek further feedback.
