New restrictions designed to crack down on the problem of pavement parking came into force just over a year ago
Over 300 fines have been issued to Northern Ireland's drivers for pavement parking since a new crackdown was introduced just over a year ago.
They prohibit vehicles from waiting on a footway adjacent to a bus lane, bus stop, bus stand, mandatory cycle lane or mandatory school keep clears. Drivers are required to abide by the new rules and show consideration at all times when parking to ensure they are not causing an obstruction and inconvenience to others.
"Parking on pavements is a particular area of concern. Drivers often mistakenly think they are doing the right thing by keeping the road clear but fail to consider the needs of people on the footway causing them inconvenience and often putting them in danger.
