Bristol resident 'cannot park outside own home'
A woman in Bristol has complained that she cannot find a regular parking space close enough to her own home, according to a local news source.
Judy Parker, 42, who lives on Kendon Drive near Southmead Hospital, has struggled to find a spot near her house where she can leave her vehicle, the Evening Post has reported.
In order to tackle the problem, Ms Parker has opted to lease a garage in order to store her car. However, the news source added that the storage facility is half a mile away from her front door.

She said: "I have rented a nearby garage just so I can unload my shopping...I know parking is a problem all over Bristol, but it's just so frustrating."
Earlier this year, the government introduced new powers for parking wardens working on roads across the UK.
The rules mean that the officials can issue fixed penalty notices to drivers through the post, allowing them to eventually catch up with rogue motorists who drive away without getting a ticket.
