Dulwich Village Parking bays are illegal

[vladi]

Have been advised by a reliable source that the angled traffic bays opposite the shopping parade in DV village  do not conform to the highways regulations because  vehicles have to reverse out blind in to passing traffic.

If the bays were converted to parallel parking then they would conform . OK, this would mean a  little fewer bays but many are now not used since Southwark made it a controlled parking area to generate more revenue.

Whilst on the subject of parking there, now that our Councillors, in their wisdom, blocked off the entrance to Calton Avenue so that they could create  the infamous "Village Square". As that is now fait a complit, it would make sense to create a loading bay there so that the multitude of delivery vans servicing the Post Office and shops could park there briefly rather than distrupt the tyraffic as they do now.
