Parking fines (Penalty Charge Notices)

How much will I have to pay?

There are two tariffs for parking fines: a higher tariff for more serious contraventions at £70 and a lower tariff for less serious contraventions at £50. Both tariffs will be discounted by 50% if paid or challenged within 14 days.

Please do not ignore a parking fine. Further information can be found on our parking enforcement regulation page.
