Illegal or inconsiderate parking

How to report someone blocking your property/driveway, or highway obstructions.

To report illegal or inconsiderate parking, please contact Nottinghamshire Police on the 101 non-emergency number. If there is an obstruction that is causing a significant danger/hazard, or is putting you or others at risk. Please call 999 (Emergency) so this can be assessed.

To report other parking enforcement issues (excluding abandoned vehicles), please contact Nottingham County Council on 0300 500 80 80.
