A SECOND incident of a foreign lorry driver getting stuck in the narrow residential streets of Cinderford in a week has been reported to police.

Last Thursday a driver of an HGV took a lorry down Parragate Road behind Lidl’s and into a residential estate where it got stuck.

The incident comes less than a week after another driver attempted to from Wesley Road into the the town’s High Street.

Local residents shouted instructions to the driver involved in the latest incident for over two hours in a bid to free the vehicle which had demolished part of a garden wall in the process.

It is understood the lorry driver was using a sat nav system that had been programmed for cars and not HGVs.

Police were called to the scene and by 8.30pm had held the lorry from it predicament in the narrow lane.

Cinderford mayor Roger Sterry has been calling for Wesley Road in particular to be made one way as he believes it is the only way to solve this problem with lorries is to have vehicles entering the road from the High Street.
