TWO mobile parking attendants are set to ride in for Ascot week in an effort to help traffic run smoothly.

The duo will be busy making sure roads around the racecourse are kept clear.

On board their Orbit Scooters, the pair have been brought in to issue parking tickets and arrange for illegally parked cars to be removed if necessary.

The scooters will continue to be used after Ascot to respond rapidly to hotline calls and to deal with traffic issues in the city's outlying areas which cannot be reached on foot.
