Notting Hill Carnival 2012
Sunday 26 and Monday 27 August 2012
Parking Information
The council is committed to ensuring that this great event runs smoothly, whilst making sure that our residents' lives are disrupted as little as possible.
During the event, Westminster's parking team is responsible for:
- arranging parking bay suspensions;
- protecting residents' parking in the area around the main Carnival route; and
- enforcing against vehicles parked in contravention of the parking regulations.
To facilitate this, the following will occur -
Extension of Parking Controls
In order to protect residents' parking in the areas around the main Carnival site and route, the council has applied for a Temporary Traffic Order to extend parking controls. Non-residents are strongly advised not to bring their vehicles into central London over the bank holiday weekend. Temporary signs will be erected in these streets with full details for all drivers in the area.
