Private Residents Parking in Scotland

[emicen]

So, after a decade of nonsense I've finally lost my sense of humour with a local business' staff parking in the residents bays at our flat near Glasgow City Centre.

I understand all the contortions around no trespass law in Scotland, cant clamp cars legally, stickers on the windscreen are illegal etc etc.

Question is, what can be done?

Yes, I'm going to buy a bollard but the parking of the people in question is that shocking they pretty much park over 2 spaces most of the time anyways and if only our space in the line of 5 had one, then its not going to solve anything and we're still going to be blocked out of it!

Have you written a letter to the company involved to complain? put a twist on it that it does not help their company image when residents start complaining to the newspapers

One of the main perpetrators is the business owner. It's a private nursery school catering for people working in town who leave their kids there all day, I doubt they care what the locals think (a decade ago when I was parking in the space whilst at Uni we had verbals over the fence regarding it).
