CCTV cameras to catch parents parking illegally while dropping their children off at school could be installed across Bristol.
ITV X reports that Bristol City Council will meet on today (Thursday 5 December) to decide whether to introduce a trial of Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras across the city.
It says a report concluded enforcement was difficult for many reasons, including that enforcement officers could not be at all 160 schools in the city and that drop-off and pick-up times were very short.
It said: “Increasing the number of civil enforcement officers is not a cost-effective solution, so officers have been exploring other technical opportunities.”
