Illegal use of front garden for parking.
Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1181910-N7P2L5.
Merton have recently put wooden post outside 2b Rougemont Avenue, SM4 5pz to prevent parking on the front garden without a drop kerb. The tenants of 2b continue to park on the front garden. The wooden Post have been damaged. Please can Merton enforce this illegal parking issue before more damage is caused to the footpath and wooden Post and grass verge.

It is an offence under Section 184 of the Highways Act 1980 to drive a vehicle across the kerb and pavement (footway) to gain access to a property if a properly constructed dropped kerb is not in place.

One of the posts has now been knocked over and is lying on the grass verge.

I reported an issue, a heated argument with the tenant of 2b Rougemont Avenue and your merton council officers was over heard by neighbours and now one of the wooden posts has been knocked over and damage to the grass verge. So I now require an urgent phone call with a full explanation. I have had no update from yourselves. Call 07855 103993. Also provide a managers direct contact number so I can make a complaint.
