Increase Footpath Parking Obstruction Fines to £150 Minimum.
We believe too many drivers are causing issues by obstructing footpaths and have not been deterred by fines, which can cause issues for the disabled, blind, families with small children and the safety of all people. Therefore, fines need strengthening as a Deterrent.

Parking on a footpath in Dunstable
The vehicle DV67VHH shown is blocking the dipped curve so where pedestrians cross the road. Especially for wheelchair users or those with pushchairs (as I was) when trying to cross to get to the park. It was there when I crossed at 9am this morning. I am assuming it will be there all day as users tend to park there for the station
