It's not unusual in Brigg to see commercial vehicles occupying parking spaces, particularly in Queen Street and Bigby Street.
This set us wondering whether townsfolk think this is OK and whether North Lincolnshire Council, which oversees parking and highways, has considered the issue?
Here's a recent example: A lorry taking up two parking spaces in Bigby Street while two postal vehicles were parked up in Queen Street - the former Post Office building's back yard being only a few yards away!
All three vehicles were parked at the same time - between 8.30am and 9am - on the busiest day of the week in Brigg - Thursday, market day. This resulted in four spaces being unavailable to potential shoppers at local businesses.
QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER
1) Should our street parking bays be made 'car only'?
2) Should it be cars plus lorries delivering to nearby businesses only? (Brigg Blog's favoured option)
3) Do we leave things exactly as they are with no restriction on the class of vehicle?
What do YOU think?
