Penalties

What are the Penalties?

For full details of penalty charges please see: Differential Parking.

Parking attendants will not be allowed to accept payment and are under strict instructions that, once a ticket has been issued, it cannot be withdrawn.

Parking attendants do not have quotas or targets for issuing tickets - their job is simply to get drivers to obey the parking control measures.

Will Vehicles be Removed?

The Council does not believe that there is a recognised need to routinely undertake removal of illegally parked vehicles in the early stages of the new parking enforcement scheme. However, the Council may, in the future, invoke its statutory powers to remove vehicles that are in contravention of parking regulations where it is considered a traffic safety hazard exists which endangers other road users.
