I know this may have been done to death but my wife has just got stung with a parking charge.
She was innocently going about her Saturday business and left Morfa at 3:55 PM.
Fast forward 9 weeks and she has had a parking charge. She is dismayed.
Of course the Swans were playing but she didn't know about aby parking restrictions on a bloody Saturday. Why would she? |  |

He wouldn’t have any power. I imagine he gets a hundred letters a week off people who have been caught for parking on a Saturday. Legitimate or otherwise. |
Yes he would 100%.
If you approach it the right way. |  | | |

I ignored it from Morfa a few years ago, but I believe the laws have been tightened up a lot since. I had about a dozen letters with the amount increasing each time, threatening with court etc. They just stopped after about 2yrs. I checked my credit rating afterwards and it was fine. I certainly wouldn't advocate following this route nowadays though. My mate was in B&Q having a kitchen designed so was over the time limit and received a fine, the manager for B&Q was able to rescind it or at least spoke to someone who did. |  | | |

My wife was in B&Q (we are having a new kitchen and she was looking at flooring, TKMaxx, Next Boots and Morrisons Cafe. It is totally ludicrous. Parking restrictions on a Saturday, the main shopping day because something is on that she has no interest in and there was nothing to tell her about the said thing that was going on (to my shame). Which is even crazier is the fact that she left the carpark way before the game had finished. (no she wasn't dropping me off as I was in work) | |

Speak to the manager from any of those stores, surely they could do something. | | | |

I have just had a phone call from the manager and he is telling the parking company to cancel the penalty. | |

It would also be a good idea if the owners of the Morfa retail park followed the metropolitan police.
On match days in the streets near football grounds there are large road signs which are hinged. When there are no football related restrictions the signs display normal parking restrictions. On match days the the hinged section are lowered to clearly say MATCH DAY RESTRICTIONS ARE IN PROGRESS.
A couple of these large types of signs on the entrance could easily be installed so everyone knows what restrictions are in progress. | |

Spot on. Unless there are clear signs it's unenforceable. Any kind of civil claim or penalty is dependent of the wording .The council in particular, almost always mess up with this | | | |

Totally agree. I had a good conversation with the manager and he was very helpful. He did point out that the cameras are off at the moment because fans arent currently allowed in the ground so it is OK to shop there on match days.
He did say that they have looked at different ways to manage the car park on game days with the different ANPR companies but all have the same limitation.
The BIG SIGN MATCH DAY at the entrance would be a good starter. | |

Coming in from Morriston, on the left hand side just before the exit to Beaufort industrial estate.
A large illuminated sign saying match is on today | |

Chers Raynor. We come the other way. Does it say on that sign that Morfa retail park has parking restrictions - that would be a good idea. | |

It doesn't, but agree would be a good idea, Morrison's has a permanent sign warning of parking restrictions on match days at their entrance.
But there again you would need to check if there is a game on | |

She did come with me to the game with the streaker and made me leave early. She was only their as we had been for a meal but because she was there I missed the streaker. Bloody plastic and one reason no one should ever leave a game early. | |
