New locations for 2025
We will be enforcing traffic restrictions at 17 new locations from Monday 20 January 2025 to help improve safety and reduce congestion.
In 2024, we ran a public survey getting your feedback on enforcement at these locations.
The results of this survey were considered by cabinet in July 2024 and enforcement of traffic restrictions was approved. This will include:
- installing Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras
- adding signs and road markings
- issuing Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) for offences such as driving through a 'no entry' sign, illegal turns, or stopping in yellow box junctions.
