Disabled Parking
Parking at church on a Sunday morning continues to be a bit haphazard. So, the Trustees are making some suggestion which might improve things especially for those who benefit from the disabled parking spaces. The disabled parking spaces on the forecourt of the church are a courtesy only and are not enforceable in any way. We depend on drivers acting with consideration toward others.
- The forecourt of the church has seven parking spaces of which five are marked as disabled parking. It will help a little if we regard all parking in the forecourt as reserved for disabled parking.
- It will help if those parking spaces are used primarily where the driver requires disabled parking otherwise passengers can be dropped off at the doors before parking across the road.
- It may help if we establish a one-way system with cars entering the forecourt at the church front doors and exiting at the kitchen / halls end of the building. Cars can queue to drop off passengers at the steps or ramps before parking across the road. Unless you are a driver that may benefit from disabled parking in the forecourt.
Hopefully this is all common sense. It will take time for new patterns to get established so we’ll keep an eye on things. We have no intention of appointing parking wardens or issuing fines!
