Council wins case against car traders

Residents have been very unhappy about the large advert for a car sales company in the field by the viaduct on Badminton Road. It's been a real eyesore.

Claire Young is delighted to be able to report that it has been removed after South Glos Council's planning enforcement team won the day in court yesterday. The car firm involved were fined £2,000 with £500 costs for display of adverts without consent. Fingers crossed this will deter other traders from using illegal advertising.
