This would exclude vehicles who are parking there to visit the park.","additional_details":"Richmond Park is one of the largest and most natural spaces in London and has become increasingly congested with vehicles who use it as a through road during their commute. This traffic makes the park feel increasingly less safe and accessible for recreational use while also causing significant pollution. I believe a toll fee would encourage considerate usage but this should exclude people parking there to enjoy the park itself.","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":21,"created_at":"2026-04-29T17:41:25.889Z","updated_at":"2026-05-18T11:38:29.524Z","rejected_at":"2026-05-18T11:38:13.543Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-04-29T21:27:30.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":null,"rejection":{"code":"local","details":"We can’t accept petitions that call for action at a local level.\r\n\r\nYou could ask your MP to take action on your concerns about this issue.\r\n\r\nYou can find contact details for your local MP here: https://members.parliament.uk/FindYourMP\r\n\r\nYou could also raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you.
