Car parked dangerously and illegally on double yellow lines outside my flat., 12th July

Mon, 12 Jul 2021 23:30:18 +0100
53.551994 -2.629111

Car registration number MD69 FJZ parked illegally on double yellow lines and dangerously right on the corner of Upper Dicconson Street and Grayson's Close Wigan. I wouldn't have reported this but the rear of the car is sticking out dangerously away from the kerb and it is ridiculously parked. This is a permit zone also so it is illegally parked in several ways. I have been out visiting my parents so i don't know how long it has been parked there.

Trees blocking traffic lights, 10th June

53.549127 -2.625061

As you come down central park way from the hospital, to turn left onto greenough street, the traffic light on your left on the pavement at the junction is completely covered by trees and cannot be seen. In the last week the number of people jumping reds there seems to be ridiculous. Maybe because they can't see the lights. The trees need clipping back as this is going to cause a crash or someone is going to get run over.

Over the past few months, cars have been parking wholely on the pavement outside Francos restaurant next to the ncp car park. I assume to avoid paying parking fees. Would it be possible to put some double yellows there so that the traffic wardens in the area can fine them. As you will be aware it is an offence to park on the pavement.
