Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs)

Why do we need controlled parking zones in Haringey?

Haringey is a borough with high pollution and areas suffering from excessive traffic congestion. As part of a London-wide transport strategy, Haringey is committed to reducing car use in the borough and so reduce pollution, accidents, and delays to buses.

Controlled parking zones (CPZs) were first introduced in Haringey in 1994 to reduce traffic congestion, improve road safety and promote other forms of transport.

The decision to go ahead with a controlled parking zone follows detailed consultation with residents and businesses whose views determine what roads are in the zone and how long the parking controls last. For a list of current CPZ consultations please see the Parking Consultations page.

How do I park within a controlled parking zone?

Please Note: Resident permits and Resident visitor permit vouchers are not valid in Pay and Display only bays.

Please Note: Visitor vouchers are not available for parking in the Tottenham Hotspur Match Day CPZ - different rules apply.

For more information on how to apply, please see the Parking Permit pages. Motorists who want to park for a short time can use pay-and-display bays. Business Permit holders can park in Business or Shared use parking bays.

Residents and Visitors can park in marked resident and shared use parking bays (residents and pay and display parking) when displaying a valid Parking Permit or Resident Visitor parking permit Voucher.

Enforcement hours and parking tariffs vary from one CPZ to the next. Zone entry signs indicate the times when waiting restrictions parking bays within the zone are in force and parking bays are in operation.

Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) are issued to any parked vehicle that does not display a valid permit or voucher during operational hours.

For further information please see our controlled parking zone FAQs.

Pay and Display

Motorists that wish to park for a short time in a CPZ can use pay and display bays. Charges for these bays are based on an hourly rate for low, medium and high usage areas. Parking time can be purchased in increments of 15 minutes up to a maximum of two hours. In some areas parking may be allowed for longer than two hours. This will clearly be displayed on the pay and display machine.

You no longer need to hurry back to your vehicle as you can use Pay by Phone to add more parking time from wherever you are. Information on how to register and pay for parking is on our Pay by Phone page.

The charges are as follows:
