Advantages of Civil Enforcement

Page Rating

Parking - Parking Restrictions Sign
  • 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.
