HI Tony, yes you can still access the fuel station and as for parking Millbook Way is wide enough where you turn in at the traffic light to accomodate your motorhome but there are now very often vehicles parked there as well because people have started using it as as free parking then jumping on the bus outside the newsagents to get into Preston because of the absolute chaos the centre roadworks are causing and the price of parking there.
A neighbour who works at Booths told me that the final straw was last year when they acquired some of our " travelling freinds ", better not call them what i really think of them who set up camp. They also tried to break into the store, were absuing customers and basically trashed the car park by leaving rubbish all over and emptying cassettes into the very neat little hedges they have around the car park.
Booths management were staggered at the cost of repairs and clean up so they decided that the cost of having these height barriers fitted would soon pay for themselves by not getting the undesirables back on the car park.
Wagon and motorhome that had overnighted there previously had a simple / polite message put on their windscreen informing them it was private property and not to do it again, it seemed to work because they also kept a record of registration numbers and they didn`t come back.
We also see how inconsiderate other motorhomers are who very often say ................................................................... W.T.F. has it got to do with you 
Whether is be stupidity or just simple ignorance they just don`t see what they are dong wrong or probably don`t give a damn.
Simlarly the far end of the docks where the car dealers and Booker ( ex Makro ) are is now another unofficial P&R with the pathments / grass verges full of parked cars as you approch the roundabout, the drivers then jump on a local bus which works out much cheaper than using the proper P&R by Stand Road or any of the city centre car parks.
This forces drivers that have turned into the docks at the lights to come round the bend on the wrong side of the road
