Van without tax or m.o.t left on road.
Reported via mobile in the Abandoned Vehicle category anonymously at 14:31, Tuesday 10 March 2026
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 9081395.
This van has been left for many months causing turning and parking issues. DVLA recommends contacting Local Council (N.C.C.),. When N.C.C. contacted by telephone the reply was to contact the police, when contacting the police they referred back to N.C.C. or D.V.L.A. How many times does this need to be reported without action. Surely someone can take responsibility and deal with this issue, perhaps take the same action as if this van was parked across the entrance to N.C.C. County Hall. I'm positive it wouldn't stand there for months. Roll on the local elections.
