Most of us have had many complaints on the ‘increase’ in illegal parking, which we have all lobbied our Neighbourhood Police Team.
Some people will not be ‘Happy’
Below received from Cllr Dee Laws…..
Just received an e-mail from March Neighbourhood Police Team.
At present, two of the three priorities focus on illegal parking in Whittlesey as it happens.
For this quarter the current priorities are:
1) Illegal parking in our Whittlesey Primary Schools
2) Illegal Parking on St Mary’s Street, Whittlesey
3) ASB in Southwell Close in March.
PCSO in Whittlesey today (Saturday) and visited roads/streets we are receiving numerous complaints from residents reporting the same vehicles continually parking on double yellow lines, frequently creating an obstruction by irresponsible parking and dangerously parking within 10m either side and opposite ‘T’ junctions.
Think word is getting out the Police have changed from their approach from Education to Enforcement.
To date
24 x parking tickets issued, St Mary’s Street
07 x parking tickets issued, Primary Schools
02 x parking tickets issued, London Street – today
Dan visited St. Mary’s Street and Windmill Street and at the time no vehicles were parked on double yellow lines.
I’ve sent a thank you response for the update and hope March Neighbourhood Police Team keep the pressure on – Whittlesey has zero tolerance for illegal & irresponsible parking.
Kind regards,
Dee
Councillor Mrs Dee Laws
