Council parking wardens take the reins
12:00am Tue 15th Jan 08:: written by Claire Moulson
The long-awaited solution to parking enforcement was finally launched on Monday as the new council parking wardens took to the streets.
They have taken over from the police through the creation of a Special Parking Area (SPA).
The council hopes this will overcome the problem of drivers parking cars illegally on double yellow lines, which has been obstructing traffic around the town centre.
Watch our video report of the wardens on their first day of the job.
