The Fiji Roads Authority is concerned about the number of cars parking illegally around Suva City.
It is calling on people not to park vehicles on footpaths, yellow lines and on nature strips.
FRA General Manager Network Operations and Maintenance Aram Goes says unauthorised parking contributes to severe and unnecessary traffic congestion.
He says they have noticed that motorist’s park on footpaths and on nature strips which is not only damaging the infrastructure but is also compromising safety.
Goes says frequently the dedicated parking spaces for those with disabilities are also ignored as a result they cannot go about their daily activities.
The FRA is working closely with the Suva City Council to curb the issue of illegal parking and it says those found breaking the law will be dealt accordingly.
