Local residents on Cooke St have called for an increase in the number of residential permit parking spaces on the street to accommodate the increased number of residents with permits wishing to park.

Local Councillors on the Stepping Hill area Committee, including local LibDem Jon Twigge, will hear the petition on Tuesday evening (5th June). That meeting will also see plans for parking restrictions on Douglas Rd & Grenville Rd.

Local LibDem Campaigner Paul Ankers said, “The Council needs to tackle the parking crisis in Hazel Grove. We need a fully thought out plan for the effects of a Hospital with exorbitant parking charges & a very large town centre.”
