SPECIAL cameras should be used to catch parents causing parking chaos outside the school gates, a councillor said reports the BBC.
Neil Speight said many schools across Thurrock were “overwhelmed” by cars at drop-off and pick-up times.
It followed residents establishing a dedicated taskforce to tackle illegal parking in the area, which is set to meet on 10 September.
“The only solution I can see working effectively is if they put up automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras outside schools,” said Councillor Speight.
Mr Speight, who is an independent councillor for Stanford-le-Hope West, said cameras would pose a “very real threat” of being fined to those flouting the rules.
