Parking on verge and footway

Verge Or Footway In Marked Bays

Although vehicles should not be parked on verges and footways (it is unlawful in London, in some other cities and generally throughout Scotland), this may be allowed on certain narrow streets where parked vehicles would not obstruct pedestrians. There are special signs to indicate footway parking. There may also be white bays indicating where parking is permitted. Where there are controls applying to the parking place, such as pay and display, these should be indicated by separate signs.
Vehicles may be parked partially on the footway in marked bays only.
