Can a PCN be issued to a vehicle parked across or obstructing a dropped footway crossing or driveway?
Yes, the new rules make it a specific contravention to park across any section of footway dropped for the purpose of assisting the movement of pedestrians or vehicles. Generally this will be used to deal with pedestrian crossings in town centres and for private vehicular crossings only in specific instances where a complaint has been received. The Police will retain responsibility for dealing with other matters of obstruction.
