We understood this was not allowed, especially in the Regency area.

meeting called to discuss a Gate for Farman Street
Many residents of Farman Street and Cross Street were also in attendance
Bill introduced the two council representatives Jonathan and Simon who dealt with the previous aborted request for a gate.
They told us that the previous gating order was very slow going and had received more objections than any other applications in the city. The Ramblers Association and Local Access Group have issues regarding gating orders.
Farman Street update
Dear
ResidentsParking (ir)Regulations
Here is a story about the problem parking in Queens Road
Hello,
Could you please clarify the following parking regulation.
In the attached picture of a vehicle parked in the Northbound side of Queens
Road facing South, the vehicle is parked on double yellow lines in front of
a previously installed "No Loading" sign that has been ripped off. In fact
only 1 of the original 3 remain.
One ouf your patrols (BH574) informed me that the any vehicle parked along
that stretch is not violating any rules in regards to loading or waiting as
there is no chevrons on the kerb.
How does this relate to the fact that the stretch of road is clearly marked
at the entrance as a bus lane and as can be seen by the large blue sign
clearly indicates it as a non restricted bus, taxi, cycle, lane. Therefore
the vehicle is illegally parked in a bus lane.
This according to BH574 means nothing as all bus lanes are only legal if
there is a camera covering it. He then refused to ticket the vehicle or any
of those parked there.
Please clarify this and if any of the information is incorrect, please
provide me with the current legislation and RTA/RTO dealing with this
stretch of road.
I can provide countless pictures of illegally parked vehicles, delivery
vehicles and other vehicles parked in contravention of the "no stopping
exvept buses", "No loading at any time" etc
On a side note, that communal bin does not help traffic flow.
Thank You
Liam Mandville

new Vetting and Barring scheme
The government's new Vetting and Barring scheme will begin operating
from October 2009. Critics have branded the new rules as "insulting"
and say they could deter volunteers.
What is it?
The Vetting and Barring Scheme (VBS) for England, Wales and Northern
Ireland was a recommendation of the inquiry into the murders of two
schoolgirls by school caretaker Ian Huntley in Soham, Cambridgeshire,
in 2002.
The system replaces the three current barring
lists in England and Wales (Protection of Children Act (PoCA) List,
List 99 -the list of those prohibited from working with children in
education- and the Protection of Vulnerable Adults (PoVA) List) with
two new barred lists administered by the ISA rather than several
government departments.
Lion and Lobster result
The Lion and Lobster, in Sillwood Street, Brighton, has been sending people
to the pavement outside to smoke after 11pm since a ban was put on
late-night use of a roof terrace in the middle of the building last August.
But this week a Brighton and Hove City Council licensing panel overturned
the earlier decision in the wake of evidence that having smokers on the
street was causing a worse problem.
SuperDrug Parking Shame
Hello,
As part of the Brunswick & Regency (LAT) campaign for safer streets, we
would like to bring to your attention the following pictures taken from
one of our members.
They show the same vehicle, a "Superdrug Savers" (YA 54 UAL) lorry
parked so close to a traffic island in Western road that buses and other
vehicles could not pass on the correct side of the road. Other vehicles
had to go the wrong side of the central traffic aisle, on the wrong side
of the road, to get past the lorry causing a highly dangerous situation.
The pictures can be seen on our parking gallery at
http://tinyurl.com/md58q3 as you can see clearly show a bus and council vehicle
having to cross to the wrong side of the road to get past.
