The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps the Government is taking to provide guidance to local authorities on pavement parking regulations.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The Department has been considering all the views expressed in response to our pavement parking consultation in 2020 and is currently working through the policy options and the appropriate means of delivering them. As soon as the Government has decided its preferred way forward, we will announce the next steps and publish our formal response. We will also publish any relevant guidance once that response has been published.
