    Vicarage Lane near Ormskirk parking problems

    Doing a delivery to a house on this road.
    I had to weave in and out of cars to get along the lane I'm out in the countryside wondering where the hell are these cars have come from it was not till after I did the delivery I realised there were all the students cars from Edge Hill University Ormskirk. It must be a nightmare for the local residents

    Car Parking at Edge Hill is a nightmare. The university has out grown its car parks.

    You need to arrive on site before 08.00 in a morning to have a chance of getting a car park space

    Uni Parking Permits

    With parking permits only being issued to students from outside the local area (10miles?), there will be an incentive for lazy types to cheat....Perhaps by using a friends/relatives address on application form.

    Single-occupant cars journeys are bad news for the environment/cause unnecessary congestion - Does the Uni not run and actively promote a car-share scheme?

    It's all the "poor" students in their fine cars cluttering the place up. Ah, "austerity" Britain.
