Labour Milton Keynes City Council is taking action against illegal parking in Bletchley and Fenny Stratford, with over 1,000 fines issued in six months.
Labour-run Milton Keynes City Council is clamping down on illegal parking in Bletchley and Fenny Stratford with 1,190 penalty charge notices (PCNs) issued by Civil Enforcement Officers to vehicles illegally parking in the town over the past six months.
The City Council has limited enforcement powers when it comes to certain types of parking violations, such as pavement parking, which can only be enforced by the police but the Labour authority on Milton Keynes City Council is actively exploring ways to tackle illegal parking on Queensway and Aylesbury Street through its community-led regeneration of the historic town centre.
Feedback from the recent consultation on public realm improvements in Bletchley and Fenny Stratford will help the City Council set out a strategy for proposed enhancements to Queensway and Saxon Street in Bletchley, and Aylesbury Street in Fenny Stratford with a focus on tackling parking issues.
Councillor Akash Nayee, Cabinet member for Public Realm said:
“Illegal parking is a real concern in Bletchley and Fenny Stratford and we’re determined to address it head-on. Unfortunately, pavement parking in most cases can only be dealt with by the police, but MK Labour is committed to tackling the issue and will continue to issue fines where we can, with a zero-tolerance stance on illegal parking.
“We are continuing to engage with the local community and develop improvement plans for Queensway and Aylesbury Street which include tackling the issues of parking on the high street.”
