- Civil Parking Enforcement (CPE) provides a greater focus on enforcement than the police were able to provide. This means clearer, safer roads and pavements.
- The new arrangements deliver improvements for congestion, road safety, the economy and the environment.
- Illegal parking on yellow lines is reduced.
- All road users benefit:
- Pedestrians;
- Cyclists;
- Buses and bus passengers;
- Freight Vehicles;
- Emergency Services and
- Motorists.
- Town centre on-street parking for short term use is made more available through higher turnover.
- Parking fines are no longer paid to Central Government. Any surplus from parking fines - after administration costs - is reinvested into local transport and environmental improvements.
- An increased uniformed presence contributes towards community safety and helps to reduce other vehicle crime, e.g. car tax evasion and unregistered vehicles.
- Abuse of disabled bays and residents' bays is reduced, freeing them up for those who are legitimately entitled to use them.
- Car parking issues are more easily linked to Council transportation policies, enabling both the District and County Councils to respond to changes in local parking requirements.
- It provides integrated on-street and off-street parking management at local level.
