Parking on double yellow blocking entrance to little Adelphi car park, 18th April
This same car parks on these double yellow lines a few times a week and refuses to move so I can’t park my car at home. It blocks up the entrance to the car park and I have to drive on the curb which popped my tyre last week and is unsafe. He should park on the main John Adam street so he is out of the way and in walking distance.

Report on FixMyStreet
DANGEROUS crossing, 17th April
When the priority changed, some paint job was (badly) done. This has now partially worn off, so - as you can see - it is not clear who has right of way. In addition, the "Give Way" sign is at 45° and could refer to either road. This is particularly dangerous as the change of priorities was not that long ago, and some drivers may go by memory rather than signage: last month I was nearly mowed down on my bike by a taxi driver who then insisted he was right. This is a HEALTH AND SAFETY issue. I see it has been reported before and closed around October 2023 (?!) but it is clearly there and much worse than before. Please fix as soon as possible.
