Persistant Obstruction of Access
Reported in the Car parking category anonymously at 14:52, Mon 20 July 2009
Sent to Pendle Borough Council 3 minutes later
The map shows a narrow 'L' shaped back street with access from either Bank House St. at one end or Ford St. at the other. My Garage is situated at the corner in the middle of this back street and is most easily accessed via the Ford Street end. Off-street parking is almost none existent in this area and it is quite common for both sides of Bank House and Ford St. to be lined with parked cars. This in itself is not a problem but people looking for a place to park are now parking on the back street itself. One at each end! Because the street is so narrow, this effectively blocks off any access to my garage. Can something be done to keep at least the Ford Street end clear of parked cars?

Good morning
With respect to your recent complaint regarding vehicles causing an obstruction to the back street near to where you live. Unless there are any parking restrictions on the road, unfortunately Pendle Borough Council cannot enforce. The Police however are responsible for enforcing vehicle obstructions. I have forwarded your e-mail to the Police, but I would suggest that you contact them separately to ask if they can look into this matter.
Kind regards Sandra Farnell
