Residents say homes and driveways have been blocked by 'obstructive' parking 'for years'
New double yellow lines will be installed in a street where homes and driveways have been blocked by 'obstructive' parking 'for years' - but residents without driveways have been left wondering where they will be able to park.
Philip Parsons, 75, who is retired and has lived on the lane for more than 20 years and he and other neighbours have all sent letters complaining about parking. He said: "Yeah it's obviously difficult for us as we haven't got a driveway.""All the time there is about 14 or 15 cars that come and park down here. They don't want to pay for parking so anyone who wants one or two hours will park here.
However, the county council said the area is unlikely to be considered for a residents parking scheme, as the majority of properties on King’s Mill Lane have off-street parking. "Because they are going to Costa the people park here and then they just jump over the fence." She added that she has even seen people with pushchairs "lifting them over" the fence instead of walking around.
Marin explained the parking problems are ongoing "throughout the day." He and his wife have previously had "some really bad abuse" from people parking on the lane when they have asked them to move.
