Issues since Tesco opened Friday 29th - Tuesday 2nd

Almost immediately cars started parking in the bus stop. These two were taken one after each other at 11.30. The van driver was in the store and the car drivers passenger just 'popped in'.

This refrigerated van has been parked in the loading bay in Plattsville Road since Saturday, effectively blocking off the pavement.

SUNDAY EVENING - usually a time of peace and quiet was punctuated with the constant sound of car doors slamming. This went on until at least 9.40.

MONDAY EVENING - these photos were taken by Councillor Erica Kemp at 7.30. Three cars parked in the bus stop and all occupants going into Tesco and one car parked on double yellow lines.

Car door banging was intermittent but was fairly loud at 10.40pm

TUESDAY

My husband witnessed a taxi waiting in the bus stop whilst it occupant used the cash machine at 6pm, and when I returned home at 9pm, there was another car parked there.
