Neighbourhood Police – School Parking Issues

So far this month we have also visited:

  • Burrowmoor primary school – words of advice were given to numerous drivers
  • Thomas Eaton primary academy – words of advice were given to numerous drivers
  • Park Lane primary school – one ticket issued and words of advice given to numerous drivers
  • Glebelands primary school – words of advice were given to numerous drivers

We would like to remind you that it is illegal to park on double yellow lines and zig zag markings. Furthermore, there are signs around some of the schools stating that you should not park there during specific times.

We understand that finding parking in the areas around the school can be frustrating, but it is all done to keep everyone safe, especially the children.

Our patrols will continue, issuing tickets to any vehicles found to be parked dangerously.

Your local neighbourhood team is doing this work due to the concerns that you have raised to us. If there is something that you would like to make us aware of, you can do so by filling out our community survey.

RG Note : I agree with some other Councillors comments that it is time the Police Stopped giving words of advice and issue more tickets to those who park ‘illegally’.
