Bad parking remains a problem

Threat to pedestrians
Selfish parking in Military Road

One of the consequences of the arrival of parking meters in Rye has been an apparent increase in parking in Military Road - which was already a problem anyway in some places at particular times.

In this case a Rye News reader has spotted some dangerous parking which could force pedestrians with prams, pushchairs, mobility scooters and walking frames to walk in the road.

However civil parking enforcement does not extend beyond those streets where there are parking controls and meters, and the company employed by East Sussex County Council to oversee the parking scheme may take as little interest in these problems as the police did before them.
