There is a long standing issue of dangerous parking along roads within Sparkhill. Knowle Road and surrounding roads have been highlighted by local residents via calls to the police, concerns raised during local drop-in sessions and through the local council.

We have held a poll on twitter where Parking was highlighted as the priority for the month of March.

Officers have regularly been targeting these roads at different times during the day to issue tickets for obstruction offences. Officers have established weekly joint parking operations with the local council to target all types of parking issues. Feedback has been provided to the local council along with residents.
