Dear Mr Lawrence,

Request for Information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

Ref - F/10/49

Thank you for your letter which we received 19 January 2010 in which you
have requested information about the borough's Controlled Parking Zones,
Parking Charges and Parking Meters. We have now considered your request
under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) and I
apologise for the delay in responding.

1) Please see attached machine list which lists all pay & display and
shared use machines in the borough.

The list also details hours of operation and tariffs.

We do not hold information regarding the number of bays controlled by each
meter.

2) The attached machine list gives details of machines in Controlled
Parking Zones and car parks (starting at row 857 of the sorted by number
sheet).

3) Croydon Council have charged for parking on most bank holidays for
approximately 10 years. This is indicated on all pay & display machines
and on the Council website.

4) We are able to calculate income generated from each machine but we
cannot provide details as disclosure of this information would or would be
likely to prejudice the prevention of crime.

5) Our signage indicates which machine a motorist should use. We do
not hold information regarding the number of bays controlled by each
meter.

If you are dissatisfied with the way the department has handled your
request under the Freedom of Information Act, you may ask for an internal
review. You can do this by outlining the details of your complaint and
either

e-mailing us at [1][Croydon Borough Council request email]

faxing us on 0208 760 5679

writing to FOI Complaints, London Borough of Croydon, Democratic and
Legal Services, Croydon, CR9 3JS

If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have
the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a
decision. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:

Information Commissioner's Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow,
Cheshire, SK9 5AF

Yours sincerely,
