Police said: “You can’t park there!

“While on patrol of the Lincoln Road area in Millfield, we have been issuing tickets to those parked obstructively.

“Whether you’re parked in the middle of the road or on the pavement, these are both considered obstructive parking as they can put pedestrians and other road users at risk, and can result in you returning to a ticket from us!

“There are plenty of carparks around the area, we encourage you to utilise these and walk a bit further rather than having to pay a fine!”
