The parking standard for flatted development of one space per flat is unadequate.
As an example, there is a block of flats at the end of the road where I live where one car, or a van is regularly parked right across the pavement, impeding pedestrians, especially anyone with a pushchair, and one or two other cars are frequently parked over the grass verge, cuasing ruts in the grass.
The planning authority should lobby the County Council and the governement to produce a more generous parking standard for flats (at least one and a half spaces per flat)
