A snack van has opened up in the entrance to this industrial estate which is encouraging careless and dangerous parking due to there being no parking facilities. The roadside and footpath are blocked on a daily basis which impedes people using the path with prams/wheelchairs (there is no path on the opposite side of the road) as well as contributing to near misses.

Dangerous parking that blocks other road users view, 19th September

Mon, 19 Sep 2022 08:17:18 +0100
55.871423 -3.621491

Neighbour has been parking close to fence and right back to the edge of the road over the public path outside his driveway (planning permission?)which blocks view of the road down the street and on coming traffic, as well as, view of cars coming up street of car driving out of car park bay. He has been doing this for over a year now. The traffic coming up the street can’t see car coming out of car park bay or children , parents with prams moving around vehicle to access the footpath ( causing a blind spot). When asked to park the car in car parking space and be mindful of other street users, said, he can park where he likes. This is an accident waiting to happen. I realise the car park is busy and congested at times but deliberately causing an obstruction like this is making it more dangerous for pedestrians and road users.
