The car park behind Perceval House will close temporarily from Thursday 20 June until Friday 12 July 2024 inclusive so it can be transformed into the count centre for the general election.

In a similar way to previous elections, a marquee will be erected over the car park behind Perceval House to be used by the council’s elections staff to count the votes.

Some parking bays along Longfield Avenue will also be suspended, and signage will be on display to make motorists aware of these arrangements.

Alternative parking is available at Springbridge Road Car Park, W5 2AB. Charges vary from 90p to £1.80 per hour (depending on your vehicle’s emissions) – all day parking on Saturday and Sunday is permitted for the same price as 3 hours and 1 hour respectively. It is free to park in this car park after 6pm every day. The car park is open from 7am to Midnight each day – please be aware it is locked overnight.

Additional town centre parking is also available in on-street pay and display bays and other nearby council car parks including Arden Road Car Park, W13 8RP.

You can see the location and charges of council-owned car parks in the borough at car parks and other visitor information .

The general election takes place on Thursday 4 July. Every resident who is a British, Irish, or Commonwealth citizen aged 18 or over, and registered to vote, can have their say.
