If you are dropping off or picking up your child from college please can you bear in mind where you are parking. There have been numerous complaints from residents who are being blocked in on their driveway and being obstructed by vehicles from leaving their property at college times. PCSO'S and the staff from college will be monitoring the situation, obtaining vehicle registrations and follow up enquiries conducted which may lead to prosecutions/issuing of fines for wilful obstruction of the highway. Please be aware of and adhere to safe parking and unnecessary obstruction at college drop off and collection times.
