IS there any way that I can raise awareness to all drivers through Hamworthy of the danger they are putting people in by parking across the yellow hatched areas and crossings at the lights?

As the whole of Poole knows, we have roadworks going on at Rigler Road throughout the summer months and there is a constant queue of traffic along the Blandford Road.

This is extremely busy at peak times and especially at school dropping off and picking up hours.

I take my four grandchildren to and from school twice a week and this has become very stressful due to the inconsiderate and dangerous driving of some people, as some stupid drivers are trying squeeze in the queues of traffic and are parking across the hatched areas and on the actual crossings, especially at Ashmore Avenue.

Not only is this against the law but it is very dangerous for pedestrians to cross between the cars. Some children walk from the middle school on their own and should be quite safe but they are not.

I fear that there will be a tragic accident soon as this is getting worse. I have myself have remonstrated with drivers and have been meet with laughter – not only are some stupid but also ignorant. I have emailed the local police twice and for a short while we had local police standing by the crossing, but this didn’t seem to deter anyone.
