A handicapped grandmother claims she is being discriminated against following the removal of a disabled parking bay next to North Ipswich State School.
Mel Duckett, who lives with multiple physical ailments, spoke of her frustration at the situation which has reportedly hindered her access to the school.
It is understood Ipswich City Council removed the nearby handicapped parking on Fitzgibbon Street â once located directly in front of the school office â in 2018.
In need of a knee replacement and suffering severe back pain, Ms Duckett said a lack of accessibility meant others in a similar situation could likely be forced to walk long distances.
