Over the past 4 years, effective enforcement of parking and traffic restrictions has not provided the necessary deterrent to improve the behaviour of some drivers. As a consequence Merton is considering a proposal to change parking PCN charges from the current Band B to a higher Band A.

 

The change of PCN from band B to band A will be a more effective deterrent to inconsiderate parking and should reduce the number of vehicles parking in contravention which causes additional congestion and can endanger other road users.
