Spencer Street / Marshgate Drive Parking
Has anyone got any comments on how residential parking can be inforced on an unadopted road?

Have you asked the council? Given the condition of the road "surface" on Spencer Street I'd like to know how they're going to put yellow lines down!

Approach other residents with a view to making it a gated community. Electric gates, or barriers are expensive, but not if the cost is shared. You will, of course, need appropriate permissions.

Spencer Street is having residential parking signs at the entrance from Marshgate Drive.I guess it would be difficult to mark the road in its present state , it as an unadopted road and difficult to describe as a highway, I wonder if the parking restrictions can be implemented.
The road has never been maintained by the Council.

Who owns the freehold to the road? Would a collapsible post/bollard with selected keyholders be the answer?

If the road is privately owned - it would presumably be OK for the private owners to hire their own clampers [:)]
