THE BREWERY Logistics Group (BLG) has hit back at claims from Westminster City Council that delivery drivers are to blame for a rise in parking fines (CM 12 October).
BLG chairman Mike Bracey says he was surprised when Kevin Goad, head of parking at Westminster City Council, said BLG members had to "help themselves" by complying with the parking regs.
Bracey points to an recent 118% increase in parking fines paid by his members. He also emphasises the increase in 'double tickets', where a vehicle is booked for two separate offences at the same delivery point.
John Crosk, from DHL Exel's Tradeteam division, says: "At the moment all we're getting from Westminster is lip service, and that needs to change."
