Parking enforcement in Thame!

IN response to complaints about illegal parking in Thame Town Centre, Police Community Support Officers will now be carrying out more targeted enforcement. 

This enforcement, supported by all the Town Councils in South Oxfordshire and South and Vale District Council, will begin imminently.

The message to the public is to please park legally or you may be subject to an initial fine of £30. Illegal parking is not only dangerous but diverts precious police resources from their core role.

In practice this means that some allotted PCSO time will be ring fenced to parking enforcement. Thame will be one area they will prioritise.

    Please have words with the Cottage Bakery on Upper High Street, Thame. As a resident I am regularly forced to go into the bakery to get them to let my car out of its parking space. They park their vans entirely illegally in front of the bakery with no hazard lights causing hazardous conditions for people crossing the road and trying to park in the spaces that they have obscured. I have photographic timestamped evidence from today Friday Dec 11th, where I received undue road rage abuse due to their vehicle being parked in the highway whilst I was parking my car a few metres ahead. They left their vehicle in the middle of the road for 45 minutes with no lights on and no hazards before they were advised to make use of the adjacent parking space which was there throughout. Happy to supply timestamped photographic evidence for today. Nb. This is not a loading/unloading issue, I have no problem with that as they are a business and people can see what is going on.
