Call to extend power to stop lorry parking


MP HELEN Whately has written to the roads minister over the gov- ernment's decision to end a pilot scheme allowing the clamping of illegally-parked lorries. The Brexit project was designed


to deter the misery caused by HGVs parking in roadsides, laybys and residential areas in restricted zones to June 30.


In a letter to Rachel Maclean MP at the Department for Transport, Mrs Whately, MP for Faversham and Mid-Kent, said progress risks being undone.


She wrote: "These powers have


been a great help to KCC in tack- ling the problem of lorry fly-park- ing and keeping traffic flowing. "I understand the powers were used 5,528 times by Kent County Council, with 77% of drivers being from outside the UK.


"KCC has said it will continue to do everything it can to protect com-


munities from illegal HGV parking, but there is disappointment that their request to have these powers extended was not accepted. "While problems with lorry fly- parking risked being made worse by the transition period coming to an end, there has long been frus- tration in Kent about lorries parked dangerously in laybys and lanes. "There is concern that recent progress in stopping lorries from parking illegally risks being un-


done by the decision not to extend these powers." Chairman of Harrietsham Parish Council, Eddie Powell, said: "I have this problem right on my doorstep and it will return. There is no deterrent now. Crazy." Logistics UK, which represents hauliers, welcomed the scrapping of KCC's powers saying that drivers must, by law, take rests and there is a shortage or parking spaces for trucks.
