The general effect of the Free Order and the Charged-For Order will be to make permanent the provisions of The Barnet (Free Parking Places, Loading Places, Waiting, Loading and Stopping Restrictions) (Amendment No.261) (Experimental) Order 2025 and The Barnet (Charged-for Parking Places) (Amendment No. 169) (Experimental) Order 2025, which came into operation on Monday 17th March 2025.

In order to deter all-day commuter-type parking from taking place in certain lengths of roads situated in the Totteridge and Whetstone area thus improving resident parking opportunity and reducing traffic congestion in those roads, the Council consider that it will be beneficial to introduce a scheme, on an experimental basis that will extend the Totteridge and Whetstone ‘TW’ Controlled Parking Zone in roads listed under schedule 1, 2 and 3 below.

(h) provided that the parking places referred to in (g) above will operate between 8am and 6.30pm, Monday to Saturday, during which motorists will be required to pay the requisite tariff to be entitled to park in the parking places. As a result of the pay by phone payment parking place being introduced on street referred to in (g) above lengths of waiting restrictions operating 8am to 6.30pm Monday to Saturday on Naylor Road and Birley Road N20 will be removed.

(i) provided that residents residing in the range of addresses detailed in the Schedule 4 to this notice will be eligible to purchase ‘TW’ resident’s permits and vouchers which will enable that motorist to park their vehicle without limitation during the operational hours of the parking places and ‘Past this Point’ parking areas referred to in (a), (c) and (e) above as appropriate.

(j) provided that vehicles displaying a valid disabled badge or motorcyclists will be able to park in the parking places and ‘Past this point’ areas during their controlled periods without need to display a parking permit or parking voucher.
