ALVECHURCH Parish Council is warning drivers who abuse the social club's two-hour parking permit may have their cars clamped.

Councillors agreed at a meeting earlier this month that final warning stickers would be issued to motorists who repeatedly ignore previous notices informing them the car park is for short stays only.

The car park is open to the public from 8am-6pm but does not allow parking for longer than two hours.

Parish Council clerk Gill Lungley said those who want to park for longer should use the car park in Tanyard Lane.

And Alvechurch parish councillors have agreed to buy two large and three small corporate-style litter bins at the council's last meeting.

One small bin will be placed at The Holloway and the other two at lay-bys off the old A441 Hopwood road.

The large bins will be installed at lay-bys off the Alvechurch bypass.
