WE ALL CAN HELP DISABLED DRIVERS BY NOT PARKING IN DISABLED PARKING BAYS



One of the issues the Oscott Disability Group and other disabled residents in the area are constantly concerned about is that disabled car bays are often abused. They are being used by those who are not disabled leaving those with genuine problems to struggle.
Like any other residents, disabled people want to do their shopping and so on, but they badly need to get as close as possible to the shops they have to go to.
With this in mind I would ask those drivers with no physical disability to spare a thought for those who are not so lucky and do not park your cars in disability marked bays.
I am also asking the Local Police Team to monitor disabled parking bays as much as they can.
I have also asked that Amey the private company responsible for upgrading our roads to repaint the markings on disabled bays in the Oscott area to ensure they can be identified better.
