Obstructive traffic in Bridge street

Everyone knows the traffic is horrendous in Abingdon which very often is caused by idiotic or inconsiderate drivers. Please tell me why i got a punished for accidentally not displaying a ticket in a 2hr free car park but cars can illegally park on double yellow lines without punishment outside posh nosh/fabulous flower/Lewis Baker. These vehicles are some of the cause to Abingdons traffic in Bridge street at peaks times. Please can we start patrolling this area and punishing offenders. And double yellow lines need to be on spring road, that is another area that causes a lot of Abingdons traffic due to inconsiderate parking.

Traffic is now being held up by the building works at the pub on bridge street. I fully understand heavy items need to be unloaded from the vehicles for the project, but maybe 1 vehicle at a time when unloading then move into the car park to park for the rest of the day. 6 contractor vans in a row were parked on Monday and it was impossible to pass , a 20 minute journey to work took me 1hr 10 minutes just because of the obstruction caused and the traffic back up, this is now a daily event.
