Legislation to address pavement parking came into force earlier this week.
The new regulations constitute a national ban on pavement parking, double parking and parking at dropped kerbs, and powers are being granted to councils to enforce the legislation.

East Dunbartonshire Council has now agreed its approach of enforcement in the local area.
Councillor Low explained: “A national campaign has been launched to raise awareness of this legislation and we will follow this in the new year with a more focused local campaign across the area.
“We will be adopting a light-touch approach in the first few months to ensure that the legislation is not a surprise to those who live, work, and importantly park in this area. We will then begin enforcement later in 2024.”
