Pavement parking

Published On: 21st January 2026

There was a consultation on this subject, as the Government is taking forward a new approach to pavement parking for decisions being made closer to the communities affected.

The Government issued its interim proposals on the points made in 15,381 responses. It promises to bring forward a regulatory framework which is national in scope and local in implementation. The issue of rental e-bikes blocking pavements needs to be addressed as they cause an unnecessary obstruction of the pavement and restrict the movement of disabled pedestrians.
