PARKING AT SOMERSET ROAD

Complaints are being received from residents on Somerset Road regarding parking in the turning circle adjacent to Cut Lane. Cars are regularly being parked so badly that driveways are being blocked and people are having abuse shouted at them.

One resident said, "When the running club ladies returned to their cars and my neighbour asked them not to park they gave him abuse. They shouted that there is no sign about parking but surely a bit of common sense tells you that you are parked outside someone's driveway. To me it defeats the object of doing exercise by getting in a car and lighting up a cigarette."

Cllr Ken Moss said, "It's great that clubs want to use the park but all we ask is for a bit of consideration for the people who live nearby. Residents' only parking isn't viable at that location and no parking zone is probably too far in the other direction but I'll have a word with the County Council and see if we can get some sort of markings."
