Cones

Reported via desktop in the Obstruction (Not Vegetation) category by West Northamptonshire Council at 15:09, Wed 1 October 2025 using FixMyStreet Pro

Sent to West Northamptonshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8239119.

Outside 7 Holyrood Rd, Northampton NN5 7AH and 4 Holyrood Rd, Northampton NN5 7AH The owners of these properties, especially number 7 have been using cones to "save" a car parking space on the public highway. They leave them in the road all the time and it looks like we have road works when we don't. This is an obstruction on the public road. Please can these be removed.
