Neighbours in Bradford who block paths with inconsiderate parking, bins or building material are being warned they could face police action.

West Yorkshire Police and partner agencies are working with groups in the city – including those which support blind, partially-sighted and disabled people – to raise awareness of the problems.

Inspector Andrew Addy, of Tong and Wyke Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “Blocking a right of way is a form of anti-social behaviour.

“During Tackling Anti Social Behaviour Together Week, we are working with Bradford Council and othergroups to raise awareness. Those who ignore warnings could face a ticket.”
