Thank you for your request for information relating to Penalty Charge Notices for Vehicles Parked Beyond Markings.
I am writing to you under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request the following information. I am after information relating to the number of Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) issued for vehicles parked outside or beyond the markings of a designated parking bay, and the total amount of money received from these fines, in the last four years within your jurisdiction. In particular, are you able to provide me with:
- The number of Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) issued to vehicles for parking outside or beyond the markings of a designated parking bay, including both on-street parking and council-operated car parks for each of the following years: 2023 2024 2025 2026 (please provide figures up to the latest point available this year) Where possible, please break these figures down by private/passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle/van.
- The total amount of money received by the council from PCNs issued to vehicles for parking outside or beyond the markings of a designated parking bay, including both on-street parking and council-operated car parks for each of the following years: 2023 2024 2025 2026 (please provide figures up to the latest point available this year) Where possible, please break these figures down by private/passenger vehicle and commercial vehicle/van. If your database works under a Fiscal Year, please provide figures to the corresponding fiscal years.
If possible, please provide the data in an Excel document with separate columns for each year. If you can identify any way that my request could be refined to improve the request, I would be grateful for any assistance. If my request is not clear or too broad, could you please contact me, and I will be happy to discuss.
We trust this now satisfies your request and that you find this information to be helpful.
