New parking restrictions, including double yellow lines, are set to be introduced near a Watford school.
Three Rivers District Council has published the proposals in High Elms Lane, where Parmiter’s School is located, in the Public Notice Portal.
The portal is used to access upcoming and recent information about various restrictions and applications.
The latest notices also include details of planned road closures in Sarratt.
All temporary closure orders and other restrictions are valid for up to 18 months from the date they come into force, but restrictions will only apply at times shown on signs at or near the relevant locations.
Here are five notices we’ve rounded up which could affect residents in the Watford area.

- To introduce no waiting at any time (double yellow lines) restrictions, as well as changes to school entrance markings (Monday-Friday, 8am-6pm) restrictions in High Elms Lane.
