Legal Justification

The Government has committed to make the moving traffic enforcement powers under Part 6 of the Traffic Management Act 2004 available to local authorities outside London. The regulations giving effect to these powers were laid in Parliament earlier this year and are awaiting Parliamentary approval. It is expected for the new regulations to come into force on 31st May 2022. Local authorities currently undertaking civil enforcement of parking, can apply to adopt moving traffic enforcement powers once they have completed public consultations and all other necessary preparations, which includes review of signage and to digitise all Traffic Regulation Orders. The proposed extension will provide more time to undertake the preparatory work which will give a fuller understanding of the scope of these additional enforcement powers to include in the requirements of the new contract.
