I MUST admit I was delighted with the headlines on the demise of the Park and Ride farce.
This business has not reduced the number of vehicles coming in to town.
Drivers have the knowledge they may park anywhere with impunity.
One extra traffic warden under the direction of the police is no cure.
This town requires a full traffic warden service which will keep the parked traffic on the move six days a week in the limited waiting areas.
Also, just as important, seek out and take to court the Vehicle Excise Licence dodgers, of which there are many, as I have observed on my daily walks into town. Why not involve some of the over 65s who are fit and willing, on a part-time basis.
