Bus stop = tesco loading bay

 
Councillors,
 
At 11.30am today (Sunday) I witnessed probably the worst congestion outside tesco since they opened.
 
A tesco lorry was parked (legally) in the loading bay and was unloading goods to the store, at the same time another lorry (GK02 XVE) was parked part in the bus stop and part on the zig zag crossing. This lorry was unloading bread to the store. A bus arrived and had to unload its passengers into the road as the driver was unable to gain access to the bus stop.
 
I went into tesco and spoke to the manager (Hari), he confirmed that both the lorries were delivering to tesco. The manager said he was aware that the bread lorry should not have parked on the crossing or the bus stop. 
 
Ten minutes later another lorry arrived and this time used the bus stop as a waiting bay whilst the original tesco lorry was still in the loading bay.
 
So councillors, can I ask what are you doing about this. It is clear that time and time again tesco make empty promises to the council and the council fails to take action when they break them. I recall that when the tories were in power that you were very keen to start a petition to force the council to take action against tesco - are you still as keen?
 
Simon.
