Meerbrook way. What 3 words = ///cities.clip.film
Double yellow lines were installed here a couple of years ago, but they are not being adhered to and cars are still parked dangerously, which will potentially cause an accident- there have been many near misses, especially on the blind corner where cars are forced to drive onto the opposite lane into oncoming traffic.
Would it be possible to advise why these double yellows are not being policed please? There are between 4 and 6 cars parked on these lines at any one time. Thanks
