Female drivers travelling through Richmond Park are being harassed by angry male cyclists who wrongly believe the area is a total car-free zone.
Royal Parks Police said: "We have had several reports from female motorists who are authorised to drive on the closed roads in Richmond Park of abuse and harassment, including banging on the vehicle and throwing water over the car, by male cyclists, as they believe incorrectly that they are not authorised.
Speaking to the Local Democracy Reporting Service, Paul Richards, Richmond Park’s manager, said: "While Sawyers Hill is closed to public motor vehicles at the weekend, to provide a welcoming environment for all visitors, a small number of vehicles are authorised to use the roads – including park staff, parents dropping children off at the Ballet School and visitors accessing the stables.
