Parking enforcement in your area

West Mercia Police have seen an increase in complaints of inconsiderate and illegal parking in residential areas.

Although parking enforcement is largely carried out by the local authority, Bromsgrove Safer Neighbourhood Team will be carrying out targeted patrols over the coming weeks to educate motorists and take enforcement action where necessary.

Inspector Gareth Keyte said; ” I am appealing to motorists living and visiting Bromsgrove, Rubery, Hagley and Alvechurch to drive and park considerately. A little thought and consideration will avoid enforcement action which often has a financial or insurance consequence”.
