Sir Roger Gale
Member of Parliament for Herne Bay and Sandwich (including West Thanet)
 

      Pavement parking

​

March 27th 2018

​

Further to correspondence from concerned constituents regarding pavement parking, I took the opportunity, last evening (26.3.18), to discuss their concerns (which I share) with the Roads Minister, Jesse Norman.   While there are complexities relating to legislation,  I am pleased to say that the Minister is seized of the need to further regulate and that the Government has the matter in hand.     I have indicated to Jesse that I shall be pleased to lend my support to his endeavours at the appropriate time.

 

This matter is a real issue for those of my constituents who are either blind or partially sighted.
