Dangerous exits due to parking

17th May

Rule 242 of the Highway Code states: "You MUST NOT leave your vehicle or trailer in a dangerous position or where it causes any unnecessary obstruction of the road". As shown in the photo cars exiting Morston Park onto the A21 have no field of vision (vehicle id black, field of vision is white) due to two residents parking their commercial vans half on the pavement and half on the road. and not in their driveways.(denoted in red). Vehicles regularly travel in excess of the proscribed speed limit of 30mph on the A21 making techniques like creep and peep extremely dangerous and life threatening.

Vehicles parking on double yellow lines

29th September

Vehicles continually park on double yellow lines on both sides heading out of Bangor. This is causing moving vehicles to have to pull out sometimes crossing the lane marking to avoid parked cars. It is also obscuring lines of sight for vehicles coming out of side streets on to the main Bryansburn Road.

Same people

different vehicle

Yet again, the same couple have abandoned an untaxed and no MOT (checked DVLA) car out our back. Seems they like to dump their cars to avoid detection from the police (despite driving the car) Silver BMW, XLZ 5415. Their tax ran out in May. Please do not make me, repeatedly, have to report this and take several weeks to sort out. This couple are an absolute nightmare.

Abandoned vehicles

13th March

Yet again, another report. This parking issue with the abandoned cars has been ongoing for 4 weeks and 3 weeks respectively. Later on, the only parking available will be outside my home, and a nursery worker will use it. How is someone with M.E (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a disability) supposed to be able to use their own parking, when the council refuse to do something about the abandoned vehicles?

Yet again

this has been reported before regarding abandoned vehicles.

This is the time for acting upon what is being a ridiculous situation. We now have 3 abandoned vehicles, seriously limited our parking in a small cul-de-sac. Two of the vehicles, belong to the same person who is clearly displaying coercive behaviour towards the local female residents. We want something done, we do not want mediation or a 'chat.' This has been happening for far too long and steps need to be taken in their removal immediately.

Turning point and abandoned vans/cars.

9th February

In the last couple of weeks, a man has been parking his uninsured/No MOT car in our area. He has now added a white van into the mix. This is a small cul-de-sac with enough parking for 4 residents. We now have 3 vans, and 3 cars. Add into the mix, workers from a local business. This man is becoming a complete menace who wants to dominate in his misogynistic way. There is plenty of other spaces dotted around his area yet he chooses our area. He clearly does not see that he is blocking access to emergency vehicles. Although, given he drives the uninsured car, I doubt he gives a hoot when we think. It needs to stop and he needs a lesson in parking etiquette.

Blocking access

22nd January

Today a resident experienced an extremely selfish worker from Ladybirds Nursery abandoning her vehicle and caused an obstruction to a property. This has been going on for a while in alternative spaces. The residents are extremely fed up as this is it takes up valuable spaces for carers, prevents residents from using their own designated parking and restricts access to emergency vehicles.

2 street lights at Gransha Ra Rd close to the junction with Castle Park Road have not been illuminated for several weeks, during hours of darkness. Street lights on Ward Park side of roadway. As the two lights are adjacent to each other, it leaves this part of the roadway very dark at night.
