Hide AdPat Hughes, of Rye Community Transport said: “The delay was for less than ten minutes.
“People caught up in the delay were told that it was an ambulance dealing with an emergency incident and yet they were still very impatient.
“This did not last very long at all and yet people’s attitude was annoyance.”
Emergency Service vehicles had problems reaching incidents in the Citadel area last year due to being blocked by illegally parked vehicles on two occasions.
