Sent to Enfield Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 4926526.

The motorcycle garage on Acacia Road is using the double yellow lines as permanent parking spaces for their vehicles and vans. Despite numerous complaints they continue to block access to emergency vehicles. If there were a fire in a house on Acacia Road fire engines would not be able to attend and people would die. If there were a medical emergency, ambulances would be critically delayed. I’m using fixmystreet so there is clear evidence that there is a problem and it has been noted by Enfield council so if something awful ever does happen, we know that the council were notified of this on numerous occasions.

    No it will never be fixed as long as Enfield council divest their responsibility to a private company.
