“Are there other people out there who are disgusted with the state of the grass verges around the Park Farm shopping centre in Allestree. What can be done, the council have posted notices asking people to respect the verges. I notice that the verges adjacent to the A38 Markeaton Park are also in danger.”
“galen271 I agree there should be more penalties Imposed on the drivers of vehicles who park on grass verges (and on pavements) but It Isn't just unique to the Allestree area It Is across Derby. I would voluntery do the job that would give me the power to plonk a heavy penalty fine acroos there windowscreen.”
“It is the drivers who park on pavements and verges instead of on the road who disgust me. It should be stopped, but it seems the only way to control this is to put the ubiquitous and obnoxious bollards in place.”
“@loco152 I think they've put bollards on some of the verges now, but not on all the damaged ones. They did the same at Blenheim Parade a couple of years ago. I notice recently they've extended them as people just moved onto the next verges.”
