MEASURES might be put in place to stop 'obstructive and 'unsafe' parking near a busy beauty spot in Bracknell.

A letter from Bracknell Forest Council has been sent to residents regarding parking issues in Woodcote Green and Old Wokingham Road, near Buckler's Forest in Crowthorne.

It comes after the authority received several 'complaints regarding obstructive and unsafe parking' in those areas from residents.

The letter sent by highways engineer Lewis Clapton said: "The Council has discussed the issue with local residents, developers and Wokingham Borough Council and has developed the parking restriction proposals shown on the plan overleaf.

"The proposals aim to prevent parking primarily in the entrance to Woodcote Green and around the junctions of Old Sawmill Lane and Ellis Road with Old Wokingham Road."

Dangerous parking has been consistently happening near to Buckler's Forest, therefore the council is looking to put waiting restrictions in place.

Adding: "The councils policy with regards to parking restrictions is that they will only be considered where parking is consistently causing an obstruction or a road safety hazard and observations have shown that this is happening at these locations."

Residents are being asked to send their objections to the waiting restrictions proposals in writing to Andrew Hunter, director of place, people and regeneration at Bracknell Forest Council, Time Square, Market Street, RG12 1JD.

Or email to highways.transport@bracknell-forest.gov.uk to be received by him no later than Saturday, July 10.
