NOT only is Badger Hill becoming a car park for the university, it is also serving its purpose as a learner-driver training area, with many driving schools plying their trade many times daily. It is not uncommon to see half a dozen at a time on this smallish estate.
As our student fraternity enjoy a 100 per cent discount on council tax bills, I think the council should give serious consideration to offering permanent residents a 50 per cent rebate for all the previous well documented problems of the area.
The introduction of yellow lines on the periphery of the estate has, as anyone with half a brain would have foreseen, driven the problem inwards, so well done councillors.
