Make parking on footpaths illegal in England

Open for signatures 68 signatures

What the petition asks

Make parking on footpaths illegal for the whole of England.
We believe footpaths are exactly as described for the public to freely walk without hindrance from parked vehicles. Keep car parking away from footpaths, with enforcement powers given to local councils to punish those who do block footpaths.
