Outside Oldbury academy, the parking the half an hour before soon finished (3pm) is horrendous. Cars parked on top of t-junctions, cars parked on to footpaths blocking the paths for pedestrians. There is even cars parking in peoples closes where they live making it mark work for people to come and out of their homes. I bumped my car last year down this road for the same reason, as parents pulling out on you or cars blockings cars from safely pulling into the t-junction. It’s an accident waiting to happen.
