Residents in Cotgrave say parking on one major road in the town can be "bedlam" with cars using both sides of the roads at busy times. Woodview is used as a bus route and is also the location of Cotgrave Leisure Centre as well as the welfare centre on opposite sides of the road.
All of this means a lot of people can be heading to the area, especially at weekends, to play football matches, visit the centre or for other activities such as dance classes. According to those who live nearby, the overspill from car parks onto the residential street can make it quite dangerous.
Graham Jamieson, who has lived close-by for 18 years, told Nottinghamshire Live it's not just weekends. "It does get quite busy and at times the buses come down here and they struggle to get through it all," he said.
