Hide AdBen Brailsford, Parking Services Manager at Sheffield City Council, said: “Parking Enforcement Officers are only able to take enforcement action against parking where restrictions are in place.
“There are currently no enforceable restrictions at the bus stop, and the issue of parking at junctions and obstructing driveways can only be enforced by the police.
“We are aware of the concerns of local residents and we are reviewing what steps we can take to address them within our powers as a local authority.”
