Parking Spaces

The request was partially successful.

Dear Oadby and Wigston Borough Council,

I wanted to get in touch to see if you'd please be able to help me with a few of these questions, relating to your area.

I would like to know..
1. How many Blue Badge holders are in your area?
2. How many council-owned parking spaces there are?
3. How many of these council-owned parking spaces are for Blue Badge holders?
4. How many of these council-owned parking spaces are parent-child spaces?
5. How many fines are given out a month (on average) for people that park in Blue Badge spaces when they have no Blue Badge?
6. The same for parent-child spaces.

If you could please get back to me as soon as you can, that would be really great. It would be great if you could please email [email address] with the answers to these questions.

Yours faithfully,

Emma-Leigh Hull (15 Rowsby Court, Pontprennau, Cardiff, CF23 8FG, 07478709450)

Compliance, Oadby and Wigston Borough Council
