#pavementParking
The pavement is for people. Walking around this monstrosity requires going into the road. You may note that this person also parked on the double yellow lines. Is it so hard to be considerate? #pavementparking

This #pavementparking across from a school forced me into the carriageway this morning. The driver shouted to tell me that it was only for a few minutes while they dropped off their kid. Well, I also have a kid, and this endangers lots of people.

The consultation on #PavementParking closed over four years ago IIRC.
Significant support for pavement parking bans across the UK from drivers

Net support of +c.34% from all UK drivers. Scotland (where a ban is in place and now enforced) has the highest level of support

This is great - there was a risk that if exemptions were granted it would water down the successful #Edinburgh #PavementParking ban.
Living Streets Edinburgh are pleased that councillors have stuck to the "no-street-exempt" position regarding pavement parking. This follows discussions about the streets referred to as "The Bangholms".

Yet Amazon drivers can park on the pavement, block the pavement, park across zebra crossings, park on zigzags and Amazon will do absolutely nothing.

@badlyparkedox.bsky.social Iffley road earlier today- if the pavements are wide enough they turn into parking spaces.

We have got to tackle Birmingham’s pavement parking problem
May 12, 2026 at 5:19 AM
Highway Code - Rule 244:
“You should not park partially or wholly on the pavement elsewhere unless signs permit it.
Parking on the pavement can obstruct and seriously inconvenience pedestrians, people in wheelchairs or with visual impairments and people with prams or pushchairs.”

Whatever happened to that pavement parking report that the last government supposedly had? The problem is endemic across the country. It needs to be stopped.

When people park selfishly across pavements they make life incredibly difficult for people in wheelchairs and many others

We headed out with @pamthomas01.bsky.social to see the challenges she faces on a daily basis because of this selfish behaviour

Today marks four years since the consultation on a #PavementParking ban in England - and we're still waiting for action. Disabled campaigner and journalist Katie Pennick says:

"In this photo you can see what happens when parking places are put on the pavement. My wheelchair does not fit!"

Not sure what the single yellow line means?

How about DON'T PARK ON THE PAVEMENT ... 🤦‍♀️

Why park like this? What is wrong with people?

Meanwhile, the Gov refuses to ban #PavementParking!!
On the lunchtime live blog:

“Pavements are for pedestrians”: Joan Collins says she’s “shocked” at “loutish” behaviour of Lime bike users in Instagram post

We challenge @anneliesedoddsmp.bsky.social to condemn #PavementParking.

The poll quoted in this Oxford Mail article shows that a ban would be a vote-winner!

It's great to hear that pavement parking could soon become illegal in Coventry:
