London bikers your help is needed Westminster Council has introduced a parking charge for motorbikes in Central London which is currently under an EXPERIMENTAL PHASE.
We view this parking scheme as direct extortion, without valid reason, and enforced upon the community without proper notification.
This cost for extending the parking bays is essentially a once off cost, and Westminster council has no plans to discontinue these charges.
In fact if this charge is left to continue, we could possibly see a rise in the parking charges and other boroughs trying to copy the same scheme.
The council should be able to fund this cost with some other means as that this is a regular public service just as the parking provisions are made for the growing number of bicycle commuters.
As they have tried to promote travellers commuting by motorcycles and bicycles and alleviate the London traffic congestion, they should stand by their word and continue to promote it instead of discouraging this means of commuting.
