Swanley residents are now facing "parking fines" for simply driving on Nightingale Way and not parking in any of the car parks on Nightingale Way.There are no signs stating that this is a toll road and County Car Parks Ltd are claiming that "they do not believe any fines have been issued incorrectly" and they refuse to give a blanket cancellation of all fines to date as requested by Swanley Town CouncilCCP Ltd state as the road is part of the private land, the cameras have been positioned deliberately to capture images on entry and exit of the site.
Using Nightingale Way to park in Aldi (which is free) is likely to incur a fine. As is dropping somone off at the Dr's surgery as CCP have advised you are not to stop on Nightingale Way - this cannot be right and must be challenged.
There is a thought that this is what the land owners want... Swanley folk not using the car parks, then they can use the data showing the car parks are not needed and turn the land into flats.... Is that why we have this strange system for fining people just for using the road. Would this also explain the 30% increase in parking charges?
We need transparency from the land owners, LCP Properties, who have appointed CCP Ltd.
