Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether he plans to introduce legislation relating to vehicles parked on pavements.

The Government has no current plans to introduce such legislation. In Greater London, parking on the pavement is already prohibited by default. In England outside London, local authorities may use Traffic Regulation Orders to restrict pavement parking where appropriate. In addition, the police have powers to issue fines for the criminal offences of obstruction and dangerous driving.
