Street parking is relatively relaxed if you know where to look.
Outside
- Norwood Road is restricted between 07:00 and 19:00 on week days plus Saturday. Pay and Display is available for 4 hours maximum but you’ll be lucky to get a spot, there’s only about 16 spaces between about 50 something businesses on that stretch of road. Look elsewhere if you’re not a confident driver, lots of delivery bikes buzz around and park super close and traffic is fast moving.
To the North of Maker Space:
-
Milkwood Road past Sainsburys outside the houses is restricted between 12:00 and 14:00 on week days.
-
Dulwich Road is restricted between 08:30 and 17:30 (9 hours), some locations are P&D (max. stay 4 hours), some are not.
-
Half Moon Lane is restricted between 12:00 and 14:00 (2 hours, P&D available) but parking spaces are spread out far and few between.
-
Stradella Road off Half Moon Lane, the first few spaces either side of the road are restricted between 08:30 and 18:30 (10 hours), you can only park there for 1 hour maximum, no P&D option. Continue further down the road and the restriction changes to 12:00 to 14:00 P&D on week days, unrestricted on weekends.
To the South of Maker Space:
-
Croxted Road is restricted from 12:00 to 14:00 (2 hours, P&D available) on weekdays and free all day on weekends.
-
Guernsey Grove and Hawarden Grove just off Croxted Road are the same.
Maybe I’ll whip up a quick and dirty colour-coded map to make it easier to visualise. The problem with these areas is that it can be awkward to turn around because it’s so busy. The safest bet in my opinion would be to check out those roads to the South of Maker Space, I’ve never had issues finding a spot there.
