haddy   10 #2 Posted March 20, 2015 Needs them outside the school, epically the shop. Anywhere else I don't know what affect they have. At school kick out time it's carnage with all the mother's parking their cars in silly places near the school Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

tahititwo   10 #7 Posted March 20, 2015 The road is being altered vastly! It`s having traffic calming put in place parking restriction`s amongst other things. The notices were displayed on street lighting posts and other places in the area. I can`t find link at moment but was also on council website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
dutch   68 #8 Posted March 21, 2015 Painting double yellows means they can be ticketed and fined  As far as tickets and fines are concerned they rather have an easy lazy evening and ticket Cineworld going people parking safely on an oversized sidewalk than running after moms and kids at school.  Enforcement is a joke in Sheffield. When parking illegal on double yellow north America you walk away from your car, turn around and it is being towed away, now that is tight.

Have you ever tried reporting it to Parking Services?  Give them a call on 2736255 if you see any inappropriate parking which requires enforcement.  ---------- Post added 21-03-2015 at 11:28 ----------  As far as tickets and fines are concerned they rather have an easy lazy evening and ticket Cineworld going people parking safely on an oversized sidewalk than running after moms and kids at school. Enforcement is a joke in Sheffield.

They receive attention on a rota basis or special visits can be made to address reported issues. They have two camera enforcement vehicles, which patrol the enforceable (not all of them are) school entrance markings on a daily basis.

It is round about almost 100 but you falsely make it sound as if it is more than double that. If you really had 60 enforcement officers, what are they doing? I see many people who don't care or worry where they park and these 60 officers must be playing cards in the office or perhaps doing some other jobs that are needed. Then when there is a football match or other big event they go and get the easy ones, but not sort the really bad traffic blockers of Sheffield.
