Red Route Road Markings

On red routes, yellow waiting restriction lines are replaced by red lines that mean no stopping for any purpose, not even to pick up or set down passengers, other than by a licensed taxi. A driver of a vehicle displaying a disabled badge may stop to pick up or set down a disabled person, but must not park.
A bay marked with red lines means that it is available for use for only part of the time that the red route ‘no stopping’ rule applies. The bay must not be used from Monday to Saturday between 7 am and 10 am nor between 4 pm and 7 pm. In this example, the bay may be used for loading/unloading (maximum stay 20 minutes) and by disabled badge holders (maximum stay 3 hours), during the times shown in the bottom panel.
