Dangerous, inconsiderate parking

Reported via mobile in the Car parking category anonymously at 10:04, Thursday 16 October 2025

Sent to Reading Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8302435.

These cars are all parked on the inside of a corner, making it a blind corner. Almost causing accidents most days.

They are owned by university students, who don’t actually live on this road. They are seen parking here and walking up towards the university. Many leaving their cars here for weeks, if not months at a time.

Often making it difficult for residents to get in and out of their driveways.

The owner of one of the cars pictured was seen throwing fast food rubbish out onto the grass last week.

This is a persistent issue every year during term time. Previously having cars abandoned for almost a year.

  • The polo and corsa left over the weekend, then came back this morning.

    The owner of the corsa was seen throwing her rubbish onto the grass again and also parking on in a dangerous position.

    The owner of the polo has been spoken to and moved her car further down the road.
