    Alert message sent 21/09/2020 19:44:00

    Information sent on behalf of Cambridgeshire Constabulary


    With the new school year beginning, we're reminding parents to be mindful when dropping off or picking up their children and not to fall into the habit of parking illegally or in a thoughtless or dangerous manner. The area outside school entrances must be kept clear to allow an unrestricted view for approaching drivers and riders or children wanting to cross the road. Road markings are there for a reason and drivers must not wait, park, or stop to set down and pick up passengers on school entrance markings. Parents are also reminded not to park inconsiderately and in a way which will inconvenience residents, other road users or in a way that obstructs the road. Motorists are advised to NOT stop or park: • near a school entrance • anywhere you would prevent access for emergency services • at or near a bus or taxi rank • on the approach to a level crossing crossing • opposite or within 10 metres (32 feet) of a junction, except in an authorised parking space • near the brow of a hill or hump bridge • opposite a traffic island or (if this would cause an obstruction) another parked vehicle • where the kerb has been lowered to help wheelchair users and powered mobility vehicles • in front of an entrance to a property • on a bend • where you would obstruct use of cycle facilities except when forced to do so by stationary traffic. #FenlandNPT #7142
