Parking: Berkshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent steps her Department has taken with local authorities to help tackle pavement parking in (a) Slough and (b) Berkshire.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The Department has been considering all the views expressed in response to the 2020 pavement parking consultation and is currently working through the policy options and the appropriate means of delivering them. We will announce the next steps and publish our formal response as soon as possible. In the meantime, local authorities, like Slough Borough Council and West Berkshire Council, can make use of existing powers to manage pavement parking, and it is up to them to decide where to restrict pavement parking and what enforcement is appropriate.
