From the junction of Wattleton road and Redwood place, around the bend, past QE Crescent on double yellow lines
Reported via desktop in the Parking on double yellow lines category anonymously at 17:12, Wed 2 March 2022
Sent to Buckinghamshire Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 3356944.
I live in Redwood Place and EVERYDAY at the end of a school day, cars line up (parked) on the double yellow lines all the way back past the entrance to QE Crescent. This makes it VERY dangerous for anybody leaving or entering Redwood Place, by car. I nearly had a ‘head on’ collision, myself, today which has escalated my fury - I was leaving Redwood place, to turn right onto Wattleton Road but because i was travelling on the wrong side of the road (No other option as the right side was blocked for its entirety by parked cars) I almost collided with an oncoming vehicle turning into Redwood Place. This is clearly an accident waiting to happen and possibly a danger to life. I have lived in Redwood place since July 2021 & nuisance drivers take absolutely no notice of the road markings. When I have stopped to ask the drivers to move or I have beeped my horn I have been on the receiving end of a lot of rudeness and abuse

Nothing has improved whatsoever!! At school pick up the cars are just ‘lined up’ as before along redwood place. I am shocked as to why this hasn’t been addressed, because it is so, so dangerous! I left there myself at 3:20 & came face to face with an oncoming car (inevitable) and had to back all the way up around the bend, past Queen Elizabeth crescent whilst the people parked up just looked on. On some occasions I actually have to back up 3 or 4 times before I can actually exit onto wattleton road because of these selfish incompetent people that street this road like a waiting zone. Please, please, please can we introduce a red route in redwood place or at least ‘police’ the area at school pick up , before there’s a fatality
