Britain's 'van dweller capital' is stopping them parking by installing large planters - amid reports of rising complaints.
Bristol has been flooded with over 600 people living in motorhomes, caravans and converted vans as they battle the economic and housing crisis.
The vehicles line several roads and the number of van dwellers in Bristol has quadrupled since 2020, according to recent figures.
Now large wooden planters have been inserted along a road to stop people who live in campervans and caravans from parking there.
