A resident of the street told NZME she had written Auckland Council to ask for yellow lines along on side of Ashton Road and a pedestrian crossing near St John's School.
"Cars parking along Ashton Road at school pick up has been a problem for a long time but no one has made a formal complaint to the council," one woman said.
"My community isn't the type to complain, but I feel something needs to be done, it has always been a concern of mine."
