Windsor Road parking bye-law
Dear Cambridge City Council,
There is a small sign on Windsor Road, Cambridge, which says, "Parking of vehicles on the grass verges in this road is an offence under a city bye-law." I am interested in this bye-law and any similar ones in Cambridge.
Please could you tell me if the bye-law mentioned by the sign is still in force? If it is, please could I have a copy of the instrument containing that bye-law, along with copies of any instrument that has amended or revoked that first instrument (in whole or in part)?
Finally, if there are similar bye-laws covering other parts of the City (for instance, I understand that there is one covering Mowbray Road and Fendon Road), please could you send me the same information in respect of them?
Thanks in advance.
Yours faithfully,
Ben Harris
