Report a parking problem

Tell us about vehicles parked illegally or causing an obstruction.

We can act on vehicles parked:

  • on yellow lines when parking is not allowed
  • in a residents' parking zone without a permit
  • in a disabled bay without a Blue Badge
  • across a dropped kerb or on zig-zag lines outside a school
  • longer than allowed in a council car park or a limited waiting bay

Report a parking problem

Tell us where the vehicle is, when it's parked there and, if you can, its registration.

What happens next

We'll send a civil enforcement officer when we can. We cannot always come straight away, and we cannot tell you the result.

When to contact the police

Call 101 if a vehicle is causing an obstruction, for example blocking a road or a driveway. Call 999 if it's causing danger.

If you think a vehicle has been abandoned, report an abandoned vehicle.
