I TOTALLY support the views of Risinghurst and Barton councillors over the parking issues outside McDonald’s near to the Headington roundabout.
Despite having a car park behind the restaurant, many drivers seem to take the easy option and park thoughtlessly anywhere that suits them.
There is a narrow service road beside the restaurant and many drivers leave their vehicles completely on the pavement, causing problems for pedestrians and mothers with pushchairs.
I notice that wooden posts have been put in the pavement near the kerbside but this has only resulted in forcing some drivers to park on the service road itself, causing more congestion.
Perhaps McDonald’s should ask a member of staff to direct traffic into their car park, as they seem to have created the problem.
