The worst areas in Edinburgh for illegal parking have been highlighted in a new ‘hotspot’ map.
Residents across the Capital have taken to social media to show when cars, vans, and lorries stop in the wrong places - such as the pavement. According to the website, designed by traffic campaigner Edward Tissiman, locals have submitted nearly 1,000 reports of cars parking on pavements, in bus lanes and at taxi ranks.
The 'hotspot' map pin-points the areas in Edinburgh that have had the most reports and Edward is urging people to go to the website to report illegal parking when they see it. He will then use the data to remind police and councillors of the issues facing road users and pedestrians.
