DISABLED PARKING

I have noticed that disabled parking spaces are used very often being removed from use whenever there is a council sponsored fair for fair traders and whenever there is any maintenance work.

I wish this practice to end

I live in Surrey

What have you found?

    Hi @campaigntim, I personally have not noticed this. Yet there is a need for more blue badge spaces!

    I have not driven for over two years ( due to menieres...it comes and goes) i let my blue badge run out ( last december) ...but it would be handy if my sons were taking me out anywhere . I know that the government said they would crack down on misuse ...but i believe that misuse was mostly due to there being no other spaces for able bodied drivers so some of them would just park in disabled spaces . I will have to reapply for a blue badge ...i heard it's very hard to get a blue badge these days ...so i will need to look into it .
