I am writing to inform you of the launch of Hillingdon Council's consultation on a new Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) as your association may have an interest.
The new PSPO proposes to prohibit private hire and taxi vehicles from waiting in residential streets around the Heathrow area.
We are asking residents in Heathrow Villages, Pinkwell and West Drayton to share their views, any concerns or incidents that they have experienced due to taxis or private hire vehicles using residential streets for parking.
We are also seeking views from trade bodies and other associations with a vested interest.
We would be very interested to hear your views on these proposals:
