[QUOTE="Flat 10, post: 7112740, member: 1880"] We have land through a dead end village with no alternative route. The road is 2 lane and therefore plenty wide enough for any machinery we want to take down there but the issue we have is inconsiderate parking at all times of day. Our machinery isn’t that large by modern standards and we aren’t the only farm business affected. I have tried to engage with the parish council before the situation gets any worse and they just say that if our vehicle is over 2.55m wide it’s our problem and that it’s illegal for us to go in the pavement. This is the same parish council that ignored any of our objections to new pubs, nurseries and other businesses opening in the village due to lack of parking and now won’t help us. Anybody have any experience of a situation like this and any useful advice to offer? Oh and yes we have had the local lunatic maize contractors souring relations which hasn’t helped at all. I’m tempted to take the combine down there and get stuck, take the keys out and leave it there but that is likely to make things worse. [/QUOTE]
