Waiting and parking•Rule 244
Parking on Pavements
This rule is a legal requirement
You MUST NOT park partially or wholly on the pavement in London, and should not do so elsewhere unless signs permit it. Parking on the pavement can obstruct and seriously inconvenience pedestrians, people in wheelchairs or with visual impairments and people with prams or pushchairs.
💡Example
You must not park on the pavement anywhere in London, and you should only do so elsewhere if there are signs saying it is allowed. Pavement parking blocks the way for pedestrians, wheelchair users, people with visual impairments and those with prams or pushchairs. For example, if you park two wheels up on the pavement outside a shop in London, a parent with a double buggy may be forced to push it into the road to get past your car.
