Voucher parking trial scheme - free parking for 15 minutes
In three shopping areas a trial is taking place of new parking restrictions allowing free parking for up to 15 minutes without a voucher, shoppers wishing to stay longer must display a parking voucher within 15 minutes of arrival. If this trial is successful similar changes may be made in other shopping areas.
The new parking signs will be put in place:
- From Monday 27 June 2011 in the Station Road E4 area
- From Monday 4 July 2011 in the Chingford Mount E4 area
- From Monday 11 July 2011 in part of High Road Leyton E10 (Church Road to Warren Road)
There are various on-street voucher parking bays located throughout the borough, see:
- Chingford on-street voucher parking bay locations
- Leyton and Stratford on-street voucher parking bay locations

- Walthamstow on-street voucher parking bay locations
Parking voucher charges
30 minute voucher = 50p each
