Parents' anger after string of parking fines at 'longest bus stop in England'

Parents are fighting fines which they say have been issued on "the longest bus stop in England". Families taking their children to and from St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School say they are at risk of being fined every day.

They say there is no parking nearby and a bus stop outside the main gates is "big enough for three buses". Several have said they have picked up parking tickets for leaving their vehicles on either the bus stop or the double yellow lines on the other side of the road.

One dad has told how he has already been fined three times within months and with nowhere else to park there could be more ahead. Emmanuel Jack, 47, says he has even considered moving his three children to a different school because of the problem.
