Ice hockey fans heading to this weekend’s game in Kirkcaldy could see a bigger police presence in streets around the rink.
Police Scotland is planning to deploy more officers and traffic wardens after complaints regarding parking, and also youth anti-social behaviour in the area.
Parking issues have surfaced over many years on match nights, and the police action comes in response to people leaving vehicles on double yellow lines and causing other restrictions.
The advice from police, announced today, did not specifically target ice hockey fans - or apportion any specific blame to them.
It said: “Heading to Fife Ice Arena, Kirkcaldy on Sunday for Fife Flyers v Manchester Storm? You may see increased police and traffic warden activity after complaints regarding parking (double yellow and other restrictions) and youth antisocial behaviour.”
