Traffic Warden Blues

The Gurn had heard that the traffic wardens were coming through from Inverness on regular blitzes and going home having more than raised enough cash for their days wages every time. The Gurn has heard some complaints but also praise for the wardens for sorting out selfish motorists that take advantage of those more liberal moments when there are no wardens around and making the pavements a danger area for pedestrians by their illegal parking. See picture below. Brian from MyNairn has strong views on the matter however and thinks the wardens are going too far : Traffic Wardens making town centre No Go area?

Seasonal Traffic Warden coming

The Ward Forum heard tonight from Inspector Willie MacLennan that he is just about to advertise for a seasonal traffic warden. An advert will soon be appearing in the Nairnshire Telegraph, it is envisaged that the post will be from April to October.

Traffic Warden Alert

Word on the street is that two traffic wardens hit town today and that one of them dished out £215 of tickets in the first hour. 'Not before time,' says our correspondent.

Update: one of the Gurn staff was wondering if the parking Blitzkreig gadges got this one?

Update: Inspector Macleod told the Ward Forum last night (Weds) that the traffic wardens had come to Nairn as a result of three separate complaints. The police had hoped that the situation would police itself but that hadn't happened. The Inspector was hopeful that it now would however.
