Parking on Croft Way
INFORMATION FROM BELFORD PARISH COUNCIL:-
Last summer, following many complaints from residents and much discussion, concerning the thoughtless and dangerous parking on both sides of the chicane at the Medical Practice, the Parish Council proposed the installation of parking restrictions.
That proposal (see attached plan) went to public consultation, for 6 weeks, last July/August. The legal side has now been completed and works have been instructed (16th December).
We can expect the double yellow lines (no waiting at any time) to be in place shortly and they will be immediately enforceable. We hope this will much improve the safety around this traffic calming installation. It's within the 20mph Zone and should be approached carefully, from either direction.
We would also remind patients visiting the Medical Practice at peak times (flu jab clinics etc) that permission was obtained for overflow parking on the football field car park, a short walk through Croftfield, for those able to do so. This was agreed by Belford Medical Practice and Belford Football Club who gave their kind permission.
