Large pickup vehicles and vans park in a short stretch of road between Randolph Road and and Seymour Drive, BR2. If there is a fire in Randolph Road, fire engines will not be able to pass through. Double yellow lines need to continue from each corner along this stretch of road. This is safety critical

I agree with this request - getting as far as Randolph Road is getting tricky, and I have a small car.

Also note - the road here is about 4.50m wide. A DAF LF (this van) is 2.54m wide, Leaving 1.96m (assuming directly against the kerb).

The average UK fire engine is 2.6m wide - 64cm too wide.

Randolph road residents are shafted if anyone has a fire.

The traffic engineering team have advised that they will conduct a full review of this request at their next quarterly review meeting in April.
