Dartford Borough Council are considering banning cars from parking in residential streets near the Darent Valley Hospital.

Staff and patients are being forced to park there because the car parks at the hospital is full but now the streets themselves are becoming clogged up.

A permit system is one proposal that could be considered. Would you be willing to pay to park outside your own house?

Do you live in an permitted area already? Does it work? Do you have the right to park outside your home?

Do employers have the responsibility to provide parking for staff? Maybe you live close to a train station, a hospital or a tourist attraction. Is your road congested with parked cars?
