Parking Tickets
Penalty Charge Increase
London Councils have introduced an increase of £10 to the higher rate penalty charge notices for all London boroughs. To view the full details go to the attached files section.
|TopParking tickets issued by the Council are called 'Penalty Charge Notices' (PCNs). They are issued when drivers break parking rules or if drivers enter a bus lane during times of the day when restrictions are in operation.
Parking tickets are also issued when a moving traffic rule has been broken.
The Council processes PCNs according to the legal requirements and the London Councils Code of Practice. It specifies the steps we must follow to collect payment of a parking ticket. It also details the steps drivers must follow to make a formal appeal against a PCN.
Changes in Parking Enforcement
The legislation that covers how parking is enforced changed on 31 March 2008. Regulations made under the Road Traffic Act 1991 were replaced by the Traffic Management Act 2004 (TMA).
The aim of the Guidance is to steer local governments into providing an open and fair parking enforcement policy whilst adopting clear and prescribed guidelines for dealing with parking contraventions.
What has changed?
- Parking attendants are now referred to as Civil Enforcement Officers
- Local Authorities are now required to publish their policies online.
- The wording on the Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) changed to reflect the TMA
- There has been an increase in the time allowed to pay a static CCTV Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) at the reduced rate from 14 to 21 days.
- To reduce abuse of the Blue Badge scheme, powers have been introduced for civil enforcement officers to inspect the validity of Blue Badges. A number of successful operations have already been jointly undertaken with the Metropolitan Police.
- Local authorities are expected to provide more detailed information on how to appeal or challenge a PCN.
