    It goes without saying that a project has to have proper number of “Disabled” parking spaces or project does not get approved. It is a given.

  2. Yes, but did you read the comments? MANY of them are canllig the mail for what they are and even mothers with children admit that there are not enough disabled parking bays. Lets face it, the mail would print any old shite to create a story, and this is their attempt at a non-story which backfired on them. Hey! want to hear about one of the good guys? I pulled in to one of the Little Chefs on the Northbound carriageway on the A1 just north of Peterborough and parked my little white Citroen Berlingo van in one of their disabled bays. The manager actually came out to ask me to move OUT of it, just before he noticed me putting my blue badge in the windscreen! If only everyone was so concienscous.Also the bottom Tesco in Lincoln are wheelclamping anyone who illegally park in a disabled bay. (not that there are very many of them) Very good, I say!
