The launch of a survey into parking in West Lothian has shown just how strong feelings on the subject are, as residents weighed in online to criticise.
Consultants are currently working on a review of parking in the county, ahead of new Holyrood legislation expected next year which will ban parking on pavements. This will effectively force the council to police parking either by issuing a contract to a parking enforcement agency or by employing parking wardens and issuing fines.
There is no regulation of parking in West Lothian other than at private car parks in Livingston shopping centre, making it a bugbear of residents in all areas.
