Residents were left fuming after a disabled bay was painted directly opposite another parking space. The council blunder in a street in Sefton, near Liverpool, was soon rectified after angry locals took to social media to air their frustration.
The situation arose after a disabled parking bay was installed by contractors at York Road, in Crosby, earlier this week. Locals soon questioned the road change on social media after noticing the two bays would leave no space at all for cars to pass down the road, Liverpool Echo reports.
Tagging Sefton Council in a post on Twitter yesterday, one local resident named Lisa said: "Sefton Council can you explain this to me please. How do I drive my car down the road that I live in to get to my driveway if a car is parked in this bay and both cars parked in the spaces facing! Don’t get me started on emergency services and bin collection etc!”
