Considerate parking saves lives

Roads and pathways are the responsibility of the local authority once they have been adopted. As a developing area, our roads are still unadopted which means the local authority have no powers in relation to inconsiderate parking. Although, if dangerous situations occur, such as roadways being blocked, the police may get involved.

As an example, we’ve recently had reports from residents regarding parking issues in Ellens Bank, Harding Wood and Rays Meadow, which we’ve passed to the local Safer Neighbourhood Team.

If you have issues around parking and would like to know who to contact, you can pop in and see us in the BVT office within Oak Tree Community Centre or email [email protected]. Further information about parking is also available at https://www.telford.gov.uk/…/civil_parking_enforcement_cpe
