Last week, Harrow Council's Conservative leadership agreed plans to increase the number of visits residents can book to the Recycling Centre in Forward Drive.

From today, (1 August 2022) residents have access to 1 hour free on street parking across Harrow. This is an increase of 40 minutes, as previously only the first 20 minutes were free.

Cllr Norman Stevenson, Cabinet Member for Business & Employment, commented:

Harrow Council is led by the Cabinet, a team of 10 Councillors who are each responsible for a portfolio which oversees a Council department and/or service. Find out more about the new Conservative Cabinet members below:

Harrow has seen the amount of fly-tipping double since 2016, we have also seen our streets get dirtier as street cleaning has been cutback over the years. Conservatives would make cleaning our borough a priority.

At the November Full Council meeting, Conservative Councillors proposed a motion which would have seen Harrow Council introduce a free bulk waste collection service and improved street cleaning services.

At the September Full Council, Conservative Councillors proposed again that Harrow Council looks at implementing one hour free car parking for Harrow residents across all Council car parks.

Cllr Paul Osborn, Leader of Harrow Conservatives, said:

Recent research has shown that Harrow has fallen to 10th place in the list of London Councils for the total tree coverage across the borough.

Harrow Conservatives have challenged the Labour administration over sending incorrect bin rotas to over 69,000 households across the borough. The Council has had to spend an extra £30,000 of taxpayers' money correcting this error.

Harrow Conservatives have raised concerns over the sharp increase in fly-tip reports for 2020/21 at the June Council Cabinet meeting.

Harrow Conservatives have proposed an amendment to Labours budget which will put local people first. Find out more below:
