TOWN councillors in Ilminster, fed up with drivers ignoring the law, are again pushing for a crackdown on illegal parking.

Cllr Richard Jacobs said it was possibly the root of more serious problems in the town at a town council planning committee meeting last Tuesday.

He said: "My opinion is that rules and regulations are ignored. Constantly people are parking on double yellow lines and where they shouldn't be."

Councillors agreed that the town clerk should write formally to the police and ask for more enforcement.
