The resident and vehicle users are inconvenienced by the the indescriminate parking along 17th Cross Road and 14th Main Roads that lead to McDonald’s junction. Not only do they narrow down these major thoroughfares of HSR Layout, but also cause much inconvenience to both pedestrians and vehicle users.

Says resident AB Gowda who has tweeted to the traffic cops for action: “Vehicles parked haphazardly are blocking the main roads at this junction in HSR Layout, 17th Cross Road (McDonald’s signal). It’s the same haphazard mode in all four roads leading to this junction.”

Although the traffic department’s ‘tiger’ patrolling squad regularly tows away vehicles on 17th Cross and 14th Main, this appears to be a never-ending ordeal to vehicle users and pedestrians. The only way to stump this out is to perhaps erect ‘no parking’ signs all along the road and not just near the junctions. But ofcourse, the best recourse is to install CCTV and automatically fine drivers violating the rules if manpower is in short supply.
