There is a white van that&#8217;s been parked here for months, and loads of other cars which I do not know who they belong to.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Phoenix Way is a narrow road and with the cars parked on both sides it&#8217;s very difficult to get passed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Bryan Cairns, who lives in Rhiwbina, regularly parks his car on Phoenix Way and said: &#8220;I don&#8217;t think of the local residents when parking my car.
