Bikes regularly block my drive at no 27

Reported via desktop in the Obstruction on a Road or Pavement category anonymously at 10:52, Fri 28 November 2025

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1265019-J3D3F6.

The Forest bike parking bay is a nuisance.

I should be grateful if it could be moved a few yards up the road outside John Innés Park as no residents will then be inconvenienced. Currently I often have to move the bikes in order to access my drive. The bikes are heavy and it’s difficult as I’m elderly and have back problems.
