Lorries Parking on Footway

Reported via desktop in the Pavement/footpath/cycleway/bridleway issue (NH) category anonymously at 18:44, Sunday 26 January 2025

Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7035904.

Lorries are increasingly pulling onto the footway to park up. This obstructs the footway for pedestrians and cyclists and at times forces them to walk/cycle through the lay-by around multiple HGV’s which poses a significant safety risk.
