The Churchfield Community Association (CCA) is made up of people who live and work in and around Churchfield Road in Acton, London W3. Our primary aims are to act together on issues of mutual concern and enjoy each other’s company, preferably at the same time.
The CCA takes part in a number of events throughout the year, including the Acton Carnival. In addition, we hold an informal ‘social’ at a local pub on the first Wednesday of every month – open to members and non-members alike.
We also manage the growing actoncentral email list through which members – both residents and businesses – can inform, surprise and amuse each other.

CCA CAMPAIGN FOR TWO-HOUR CPZ IN ZONE K: UPDATE
On 26 March, Anthony Crane, one of the council's 'CPZ & Parking Engineers', wrote with the latest news:
... The traffic orders will be advertised this Friday and providing no objections are received, we intend to have the changes implemented after the 3 weeks statutory period and ready for a 1st May live date.
I apologise for the delay in progressing with these changes. I assure you that it's never our intention for these things to be delayed, unfortunately other schemes on our programme often run in to trouble and this had a knock on affect. Hopefully the statutory period will run smoothly and without objection so that we may proceed.
CCA CAMPAIGN FOR TWO-HOUR CPZ IN ZONE K: SUCCESS!
The CCA executive has been informed by Councillor Dan Crawford that Zone K1 – where the parking restrictions operate only during 9–10am and 3–4pm – will be extended to cover the parts of Zone K within the following boundaries: Steyne Road/Horn Lane (east side), High Street (north side), Overground railway line, St Dunstan's Gardens, top of Cumberland Road (up to but not including Acacia Road) and Highlands Avenue. All other parts of Zone K will remain the same - that is, they will have no parking from 9.30am to 5.30pm.
As the CCA campaigned for this reduction in hours in and around Churchfield Road to order to help the businesses there, we're obviously really chuffed at this decision. We're told that the changes will come into force in February.
For the background to this campaign, go to the Executive page.
