Description
Hi,
we have chronic issues of poor parking on our cul de sac mostly by people who park and leave to town - it is a very thin street and some people park on both sides, on the pavement and also blocking the road in such a way that no emergency or service vehicles can get through - I have attached some photos to illustrate - it is worse on match days but recently even during working days - people going off to work after parking poorly - 2 days ago I had a skip scheduled to come and take away waste form my house further down the street but it could not get through and sometimes it is very hard to squeeze through even with a normal vehicle.
Unfortunately as is is a cul de sac, there are no restrictions placed ; and in an area surrounded by permit parking we are not a permit parking street making us even more vulnerable - neighbours have reported that if they do ever confront the people parking here they are faced with aggression.
I feel either there should be enforceable restrictions put in place - permit parking, residents only etc. or road markings made to mark how much space a fire engine would need to get through; or potentially barring one side of the street for parking - it is mostly an issue in the mid section of our street
