Eastbourne man's frustration over market vans parked along seafront
An Eastbourne man has expressed frustration over market vendor vans which he says take up numerous spaces on the seafront.
David Smallwood, who lives on Grand Parade, says the vehicles to the right of the pier are a nuisance to residents and hoteliers, put off tourists, and can even be a safety hazard.
He said, “The vans are parked half-way on the pavement, a lady nearly got knocked over this morning. It looks like Hampden Park trading estate. I’m sure it doesn’t do the town any good when visitors came along and think, ‘where can we park?’
