Parking restrictions will be enforced near to a Nottinghamshire school to keep pupils safe. The restrictions will be introduced on Wood Lane and Yew Tree Lane in Gedling in response to obstructive parking.
Nottinghamshire County Council will put single yellow lines along Wood Lane and double yellow lines at the Junction of Wood Lane and Yew Tree Lane. This comes after consistent complaints from residents about parking restricting visibility and movement in the area.
Parking issues have largely been caused by visitors to Carlton-le-Willows Academy and those visiting Gedling Woods, according to the county council. The single yellow lines will mean that vehicles cannot wait or park on the side of Wood Lane with the path between 8am and 6pm Monday to Friday which will increase the safety of pupils walking to the academy.
