A CAR dealership is under investigation following serious concerns over its vehicles 'blocking' up two roads.

Gainsborough Road residents have lodged complaints against Trade Centre Warrington, on Chester Road.

One resident, who wishes to remain anonymous, claimed up to 16 cars have been parked in 'inconvenient' spots.

They added: "It is an absolute mess and is causing a major problem, especially when there is a lot of traffic.

"When vehicles are passing, especially if they are buses or ambulances, it is very dangerous and they can struggle to get through because the roads are blocked.

"And if the bridge is shut it can be a nightmare."

The council has confirmed it is investigating the matter.

It will determine whether the vehicles on Chester Road and Gainsborough Road have been parked inappropriately.

Trade Centre Warrington is yet to respond to a request for a comment.
