A RANGE Rover has been seized following parking concerns raised near a primary school.

Yesterday, officers from Great Sankey South police revealed that they have been receiving complaints about poor parking outside schools during pick up and drop off times.

So following this, they attended Great Sankey Primary School where they found a Range Rover fully obstructing Haig Ave.

Checks on the vehicle led to officers discovering that there was no valid insurance for the vehicle.

As a result, it was seized and the driver was reported for having no insurance.

Great Sankey South Police has issued advice on its Facebook page regarding parking out schools.

“Pick-up and drop off times are busy outside schools, this causes an increased safety risk to both parents, children and other road users.

“Parking restrictions outside schools are in place to keep everyone safe, parking inconsiderately can put people in danger and also risk you being issued with a Fixed Penalty Notice.

“Never stop on yellow zig-zags or other markings, it will be busier than normal so leave extra time for your journey or consider walking to/from school.

“Please be considerate of local residents and do not block driveways or access roads.”
