More important, you can apply for a white line entrance marking, which is
surprisingly effective at stopping people from doing so.


That's an idea - how does one go about it?


There is nothing illegal about painting road markings that do not require a
Traffic Order and that comply with the Road Signs Regulations and General
Directions, so I did it by painting one with factory floor lining equipment.
When they resurfaced the road, the contractors replaced it with a pukka one.
However, I think the right way is to apply to the local authority Highways
Department. Last I heard, the cost was about £60.
