Anyone who regularly travels around the Queens Road/Queens Road West/Whalley Road traffic lights will know exactly what I mean by inconsiderate parking, its an accident waiting to happen (along with Lancaster Avenue and Garden Street). Any fool can work out that if you triple the number of staff using a building as has happened at the Mount, then these people need to park somewhere but it seems that these people will park ANYWHERE e.g pavements, street corners, double parked. The Residents Only parking scheme has to cover a certain size of geographical area and the areas in which there is strong support is not currently big enough. Kate, I agree that ROP is not an ideal solution but neither are yellow lines in my opinion as ultimately they stop ANYONE parking 24/7.
