On the 23rd January 2006, Horsham District Council and Mid Sussex District Council successfully introduced Civil Parking Enforcement (CPE), bringing about safer and less congested streets. Worthing Borough Council also joined CPE on 10th September 2007. This has allowed Worthing Borough Council to take over the role of on-street parking enforcement from Sussex Police, on behalf of West Sussex County Council, and has contracted the service to NSL Services Group to manage on a day-to-day basis. The scheme was renamed Civil Parking Enforcement (CPE) on 31st March 2008 when new regulations came into force by way of the Traffic Management Act 2004 part 6.
Previously, the Government received the majority of money generated through parking fines issued by the police. Under CPE, West Sussex County Council, in partnership with Worthing Borough Council, collects the penalties and uses them to pay for the costs of enforcement – using any surplus money to the benefit of transport, parking and other environmental improvements in the Worthing Borough.
You can pay your penalty charge notice (PCN) on-line, at the Worthing Parking Shop, over the phone or by post. For full details please see the Paying a Parking Ticket (PCN) page.
