From PCSO Gemma Tarling:-
In respect of the parking problems on Marine Drive, the problem may get worse during the warm weather.
I have therefore spoken to the traffic wardens who are happy to come down the estate and the beach to deal with the parking on double yellow lines etc.
Should we recieve reports of parking issues we will ring the wardens and tell them where there is a problem and they will visit the area.
Should the vehicles be causing an obsruction we will attend and take any actions that are necessary, including the removal of the vehicle.
