Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council said more roads could
be included as part of a “village wide parking plan”.
Roads to get restrictions are Poplar
Road , Fennis Close up to Beckford Croft, Cawdon
Grove, Rodborough Road
area, Station Road and
Westfield Close.
No details of the type of restrictions – likely to be yellow
lines – have been announced though work will be finished in by next April.
A council report said: “Officers are aware that all day
parking is occurring on many roads around Dorridge railway station.
“In response to concerns raised by local ward members and
residents, officers are currently working on the introduction of a village wide
parking plan for Dorridge as part of the 2014/15 Traffic Regulation Order works
programme.”
A petition has been handed by the council from residents of
Brooksby Grove calling for restrictions.
A council report said: “As part of the village wide parking
plan for Dorridge, the residents of Brooksby Grove will be formally consulted
on the introduction of further parking restrictions.
“The implementation of any further restrictions will be
subject to the outcome of that exercise.”
The council has also set aside £25,000 for restrictions in Widney
Road
