The parking control team
The parking control team is responsible for the enforcement of the Traffic Acts in the borough, making our streets safer for everyone. To help us keep our streets free from parking hazards be a considerate motorist :
don’t park …
- in designated residents’ parking areas without a valid permit.
- on single or double yellow lines.
- across a dropped kerb
- in limited waiting areas longer than specified.
- in reserved bays without the appropriate permit/badge.
- across the lines of a marked bay.
Please note that the council is not responsible for vehicles parked:
- in private developments or Housing Association parking areas
- on the public highway if there are no parking restrictions in place
- on trunk roads in the district or on the M3 motorway
If you have a general parking query, contact the parking team on telephone number 01256 845775 or e-mail parking@basingstoke.gov.uk
