Cars parked illegally at a popular 'hidden beach' have been towed away. Gaddings Dam, on the outskirts of Todmorden, in West Yorkshire, has been crowded with people in recent days following sunny weather and a relaxation of the lockdown rules.
But locals in the area have said people driving to the beauty spot have been causing chaos on the roads. Residents said many drivers have been seen parking on double yellow lines on nearby Lumbutts Road, as well as blocking access for larger vehicles such as buses or emergency service vehicles.
Following complaints, traffic council officers and police towed a number of illegally parked vehicles away and issued drivers with fines.
