They just don't get it

Sandwell's Obsession with parking fee's bites again, this time its at the proposed £11M leisure centre in West Brom

this town already has a major Police station with no staff car parking , so the bobbies have to park in the street  ( where's the risk assessment on that one?)






With little or no parking for shoppers, Sandwell council should not be surprised when shoppers keep away and the news that takings from market stalls is dropping is a shining example of this parking fiasco.

Markets’ income falls by £50,000

But while shops close and Market traders shut up shop, Sandwell Council is singing all the way to the bank with news that it made £810,000 in parking fines the highest of the local authorities around

But on top of that it was released that Sandwell squashed a number of tickets this amounted to

4,500 parking fines unpaid

Sandwell Tory said

Well Done Sandwell, while you rake in the money our premier town suffers, but you can always blame the recession the Government or the weather or perhaps its just down to the Maths results?
