Stop pavement parking on Sandy Park Road


Stop pavement parking on Sandy Park Road
The Issue
Pavement parking is a widespread problem, but a particular concern on Sandy Park Road in Brislington West.
Drivers regularly block the narrow pavements in this busy, shopping street, sometimes forcing pedestrians onto the road to get past. It’s an accident waiting to happen.
Drivers often reverse over the zebra crossing to access the local shops rather than using the local car park and walking a few metres!
Drivers regularly park on the zigzag lines of the zebra crossing reducing visibility for people crossing the road.
We have repeatedly asked Bristol City Council to do something about it but to no avail. We are now demanding the council step up enforcement and find a long-term solution such as railings and/or bollards.
