A Polite Reminder on Considerate Parking

Published: 14 May 2026

It has come to attention that in several residential areas within the village, vehicles are increasingly being parked in a way that obstructs pavements, in some cases blocking them entirely.

We kindly remind residents to consider the impact of their parking on others in the community. Pavements are essential pathways for everyone, particularly for those using pushchairs, wheelchairs, mobility scooters, or those with visual impairments. When these routes are blocked, it can force pedestrians into the road, creating unnecessary safety risks.

We also ask residents to avoid parking across dropped kerbs, as these are vital access points for pedestrians, wheelchair users, mobility scooters, and parents with prams, as well as for residents accessing driveways.

We ask all residents to park thoughtfully and ensure that pavements and access points remain clear and accessible wherever possible.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping keep our village safe and accessible for all.
