The homeowner said she has been left embarrassed
A homeowner has pleaded with their local council to remove bollards erected in front of her driveway.
She said: "I didn't initially know you couldn't drive over it, and we only had the driveway done at the end of March. A highways inspector drove past, stopped, and told my husband he was legally not allowed to park there. "This was just a warning sign, we haven't used it since, yet they still came and installed the bollards," the resident added.
Local councillor Deborah Laing sympathises with the resident but says requests to relocate the crossing, in partnership with the council, have failed so far. "On this occasion the resident did not contact the Highway Authority before building their block paving. If they had, they would have been advised that a vehicle crossing would not be allowed due to the existing crossing, which is also a school crossing patrol location and has been for many years.
