'Chaotic' streets in Nottingham where parents park on double yellow lines on the school run

Those with children attending Hollygirt School in Mapperley say that both drop-off and pick-up times were manic due to the number of cars parked on either side of narrow roads such as Cranmer Street and Villa Road.

"It's crazy, the traffic coming through is constant, it's manic," said dad James Wood. "It's not a massive issue but it's an issue for the cars because everyone starts getting impatient."

The 49-year-old IT project manager continued: "I walk, we moved from Australia recently and part of the reason we chose this school was because it was within walking distance. I came down the other morning and I was like 'woah', it was so busy.
