A pensioner has forked out £600 for a new driveway after being blocked from his home by parents parking on double yellow lines while picking their children up from school.
Alan Richardson, 82, has told how he has been forced to spend hundreds of pounds to allow him to be able to leave his home through the day as it sits near Cadishead Primary School in Manchester.
Richardson says that many of his neighbours have also been forced to convert their gardens into driveways due to the 'crazy' school run making access more and more difficult. He told Manchester Evening News: “There are times when I just can’t get off my drive, there are that many cars around.
