Grass close being destroyed!

There is an increasingly common problem with local residents driving onto and through grass close in order that they can park outside their houses - particularly where parking in the close (off Mitchell's Road) is limited.

The parking in the close is often oversubscribed since this is the first area out of the controlled parking zone where commuters will come and park all day for free.

The close serves as a cut through from Gales Drive and is frequented by all, including the elderly and families with children.

Concrete bollards, to prevent cars driving onto the grass close would prevent this and preserve the area for what it is intended for.
