Deputy Tracey Vallois is frustrated that the problem of parents parking on the pavement when dropping off or picking up their children from schools in the area has been allowed to continue for years despite ongoing pressure for an alternative to be found.

And, the Deputy said the issue has now spread to the evenings and weekends with drivers following the precedent set by parents to leave cars on the pavement for long periods and even overnight.

‘If anything else in the law was broken, for example burglary, drug offences or something like that, you wouldn’t just turn around and say “don’t worry about it”,’ said Deputy Vallois.

‘It is about respecting other people and the fact that children have to use those walkways,’ she said.
