Since February 2003 Bath & North East Somerset Council has
been responsible for the enforcement of all on-street parking,
including yellow line restrictions.
Waiting restrictions apply to the whole of the highway including
verges and footways and are normally indicated by yellow
lines along the edge of the carriageway.
Single Yellow Lines
Single yellow lines indicate where waiting is prohibited for
periods less than the full 24-hour day.
Double Yellow Lines
Double yellow lines indicate that waiting is
prohibited 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including bank holidays
for at least 4 consecutive months.
No Signs on Double Yellow Lines?
Follow a review carried out by the Department
of Transport, signs on lampposts which prohibit parking "at any
time", no longer need to be sign plated. In view of this
change, motorists are asked to remember that they are enforceable
whether or not there is a time plate in the vicinity indicating no
waiting "at any time".
