Pavement parking and corner blocking – just your average day in the life of a Grantham 'Dozy Parker'




Guess what – yes, those 'Dozy Parkers' have been at it again!

Journal readers continue to send in pictures of inconsiderate parking as part of our campaign to bring peace and harmony to the roads – and more often footpaths – of Grantham.

One reader was so annoyed that he sent in four pictures of different 'Dozy Parkers' around Grantham.

A van parked in Signal Road was next to catch his eye. "Hasn't got a clue!", he said. "Obstructing view from driveways and parking right on the corner of a junction."
