New parking regime for Windmill Road

EFRA has campaigned for some time for measures to ease traffic congestion in Windmill Road. This residential road is a main route from Ealing to Brentford and the A4/M4 but was never designed to carry the amount of traffic now using it. The situation has been made even more difficult by the recent introduction of double decker buses on the E2 route. Along much of this road two large vehicles cannot pass easily with the resultant hold ups and build up of traffic.

Improvements to road safety

A frequent issue raised at the Northfield Ward Forums has been problems caused by cars being parked around street corners thus reducing the site lines for pedestrians and drivers. Ealing Council consulted residents of roads south of Little Ealing Lane about the introduction of double yellow lines at some junctions in that area. EFRA was generally supportive of the proposals but lobbied the council for a change to reduce the length of double yellow lines from 10 metres to 5 metres from the junction in order to lessen the number of parking spaces lost. This suggestion has been accepted.
