1a.The verges are highway maintainable so LCC has the maintenance liability for them.
b. Anyone can park on the verge as long as their vehicle is legally allowed to be on the road. If it is not then the Police should be informed.
c. Obstruction of an access (driveway) is a Police matter as access has to be maintained and cannot be blocked.
