Vistors to Eryri - the Snowdonia National Park, over the bank holiday and half term, have been warned their vehicles will be towed away if they are blocking roads and causing traffic dangers.

North Wales Police, the Eryri National Park Authority, Traffic Wales and two councils have joined forces to tackle problems caused by visitors, many of whom travel from the Midlands. Chief Inspector Gethin Jones urged people to heed the warning that anyone parked on a clearway or causing an obstruction will risk having their vehicle removed – at their own expense.
"We have previously witnessed pedestrians with young children, having to walk in the road in areas such as Llyn Ogwen and Pen-y-Pass because of the selfish actions of a minority – this is clearly unacceptable.”
