Mayor of London and GLA elections:
You will need to bring a photo ID to vote at a polling station in the GLA and Mayoral elections on 2 May.
We are trialing plans for cashless parking across the borough.
The trial involves three district centres:
We provide limited stay free parking within our town centres and high streets. Limited short-stay parking encourages regular turnover, by making spaces close to shops available for short durations suitable for shopping.
From Tuesday 2 January 2024 for a trial period of three weeks, we will be changing how the free 60 minute parking sessions operate.
We will be switching off the ‘pay and display’ machines, and no tickets will be dispensed. Instead, motorists will need to either:
We do not apply surcharges to use RingGo, but do check your phone settings. There is a no return period of two hours after leaving a location.
The PayPoint locations in the three district centres are:
Londis store at the Shell Foxley Garage on the corner of Godstone Road and Foxley Hill Road
Our existing ‘pay and display’ machines rely upon 3G connectivity which is currently being shut down by network providers. This means the machines are reaching the end of their operation. This trial will enable the council to understand the impact of moving to cashless payment and address issues that users experience during the trials.
We welcome any comments on this trial, via an online survey, available at:
The survey will close on Monday 22 January 2024.
