You said, we did …. Parking Enforcement and Engagement Initiative

In collaboration with CWAC Enforcement Officers and myself

Target Areas:

Around Cuddington Primary School, St Bede’s Catholic Primary School, The Russet School, Weaverham Academy, Weaverham High School and Acton Bridge station road.

Key Actions

1. Focus Areas:

• Forest Street

• Lime Avenue

• Ash Road

• Mere Lane

• Fir Lane

• Station Road

These areas were targeted due to ongoing traffic and parking issues, particularly during school hours.

2. Outcomes:

• Forest Street:

• 1 Penalty Notice issued for parking on double yellow lines.

• Lime Avenue:

• 3 drivers were engaged in conversations and advised to relocate their vehicles to safer locations.

• Ash Road:

• 1 Penalty Notice issued for parking on zig-zag markings.

• 1 Penalty Notice issued for crossing double yellow lines.

• Mere Lane:

• 1 Penalty Notice issued for parking in a disabled bay without displaying a valid badge.

• Fir Lane:

• Drivers engaged in conversation and advised to relocate to safer parking areas.

Purpose:

This initiative aimed to promote road safety and minimize hazards caused by inappropriate parking, especially in school zones where children are most at risk.

Next Steps:

Ongoing monitoring and further enforcement actions may be implemented to ensure continued compliance and support community safety efforts.

Operation Sceptre returns once again next month (19-25 MAY). The initiative takes place twice a year co-ordinated by the National Police Chief’s Council and aims to raise awareness of knife crime, as well as police action in detecting, reducing and preventing it. As part of the Knife Crime Awareness Week, a knife surrender bin will be available at the WEAVER and CUDDINGTON PCSO Surgery, held at The Lighthouse, Church Lane, Weaverham, CW83NJ on Thursday, 22 May, from 18:00 to 19:00 hours. This is an opportunity for members of the community to safely dispose of knives and help make our community safer.

I am also planning a knife sweep across our ward on SATURDAY 24TH MAY from 1400 hours for anyone interested in assisting with this safety initiative.  Further details to follow in due course. 

Engagement took place with members of ST BEDES CATHOLIC CHURCH congregation over coffee after the morning service this week.

It was lovely to see Northwich residents enjoying the sunshine at Verdin Park, and the funfair.  Great engagement with local youths while out on patrol — fantastic to see everyone enjoying themselves responsibly!  The funfair is expected to attend WEAVERHAM LAKEHOUSE FIELD from 6th-18th MAY.

Following parking concerns raised by our community, a parking patrol was conducted on Church Lane, Weaverham  due to unnecessary obstructions affecting drivers’ visibility when approaching junctions from Farm Road and Nicholas Road. Several Fixed Penalty Notices were issued and engagement with St Bede’s Catholic Church to discuss future preventative measures, including placing cones at the junctions to help ensure clear vision onto Church Lane. If you have any parking concerns in your area, we want to hear from you!
