I FEEL the on-street parking attendants/wardens are the best thing that has happened in Kidderminster in a long time.

Before, it was impossible to park in Oxford Street, Bridge Street and Coventry Street. It is now possible to find a place in all three.

I have seen them booking drivers completely ignoring double yellow lines, but they do need to use some discretion. I saw one booking a car pushed on the pavement between the trees in Northumberland Avenue opposite the doctors.

This seemed absolutely pointless as they were not parked on the road nor blocking the pavement and quite often it is impossible to find a space in the doctors car park.
