Council cracking down on school run bad parkers in Springfield, Milton Keynes

Parts of Ravensbourne Place and Springfield Boulevard, near Orchard Academy, have been earmarked for ‘no waiting at any time’ restrictions as part of a public consultation exercise that is open until March 7.

There are also plans to introduce restrictions on the loading of vehicles. They also want to create one space for an ambulance and two spaces for disabled people, in Ravensbourne Place.

The council’s highways and transportation department says the proposal comes “following concerns raised over public safety which is caused by inconsiderate parking during school drop off and pick up times at Orchard Academy, Springfield Boulevard.”

They conclude that the proposed restrictions will help create a “safer environment throughout the road and encourage and facilitate safer pedestrian and cyclist movements.”
