FIXMYSTREET IN NP4 5DP
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of NP4 5DP:
Car parking on the pavement, 11th April
My husband and I regularly use this pavement, we have a 3 year old and a 5month old and there’s always a car or van parked here. This causes us to walk our child onto the road to get around the car and we also have to take our pram out into the road as well in order to get around the car and back onto the pavement. It doesn’t matter the time of day or what day, there’ll always be a car parked here

Parking right on the corner of a junction and blind turning, 21st August
Over the past month or so, cars have started parking on the corner of the turning into Lancaster Road, New Inn. As you can see, vehicles exiting the road have to go over to the other side of the road to go round the cars. If cars are coming from the other direction to turn left into the road, it's completely blind due to the wall of the property on that corner. There have been several near misses and I have also turned into the road and nearly hit someone head on. A funeral cortege was held up because it couldn't move forwards to exit the road. We aren't sure which house these cars belong to but they're definitely one of the properties on Newport Road, either side of the turning. We think there now needs to be double yellow lines both sides of the Lancaster Road turning, for a short distance to prevent cars parking there as it won't be long before there is a collision there.
