Hollingdean Parking

CA74 HJN

White Citroen Dispatch

  • CA74 HJN is a second Citroën Dispatch van belonging to Cardo Group that is now regularly being stored in Hollingdean outside of working hours.

  • Like CK25 OUS (another van belonging to Cardo Group), this van is linked to a driver who lives outside the area, in one of the nearby controlled parking zones towards Fiveways.

  • Rather than keep the vehicle where they live, it is brought into Hollingdean and left here overnight and across weekends.

  • Residents have increasingly reported seeing both vans present at the same time, parked along Hollingbury Crescent in the most heavily congested section closest to Fiveways.

  • The effect is immediate and obvious: multiple large commercial vehicles occupying space in a residential street that is already under extreme pressure.

  • This is not occasional overspill or a one-off visit. It is a consistent pattern in which a private company is using Hollingdean as a free storage location for its vans, shifting the burden of that decision onto local residents.

  • For those living nearby, the impact goes beyond the loss of space. Larger vans reduce visibility, make passing more difficult, and increase the sense of congestion on streets that were never designed to accommodate this kind of use, and espcially not from drivers who don't even live in the area.
