Zebra Crossings are for deliveries

Zebra Crossing parking spaces are not just for shoppers, they are used by delivery vehicles. Here we see a pair of city-link vans, one on the crossing, one double parked just past it.


This is a bit inconvenient for cars, as it forces them into the oncoming lane and so the approaching bicycle.


To address this, one of the vans moved to pavement park on the yellow lines on the opposite side of the road.


Now it is oncoming bikes that have to give way to cars.
