Parking is covered in section 2 of the document and moving traffic in section 3. It is primarily intended for use by WCC’s Marshals, a term which also includes traffic enforcement camera operators (see section 10.0), but has been made readily available via WCC’s website for the public’s information. 3.2 Through this document WCC seeks to: Deliver a high quality parking service to all road users in a fair and consistent manner; Ensure there is clarity of the kerbside policies and enforcement requirements for all; and Be a single point in which kerbside and enforcement policy is documented and can be updated. 3.3 Document Format Each main area of kerbside use and enforcement is covered by a separate section. An amendment history is included to track changes to the previous version of this document. 3.4 In general terms, temporary or trial changes will not be listed in this document and it will omit specific or ad hoc instructions referring to individual streets or locations. These will continue to be communicated to the kerbside management provider via formal instruction. 3.5 Illustrations and Photographs The illustrations and photographs included in this document are examples used for illustrative purposes only, intended to promote ease of use of this document, and may not reflect the actual signage or restrictions in place on-street. In the case of MTCs, the contraventions are not limited to the signs illustrated in this document. 3.6 Operational Manual The information within this document should be used in conjunction with the Operational Manual. The KMECOP document specifies the kerbside and enforcement protocols Marshals and camera operators should employ when enforcing parking and moving traffic contraventions respectively on behalf of WCC, whereas the Operational Manual outlines operational procedure and best practice. 4 City of Westminster Kerbside Management & Enforcement Code of Practice v4.0 April 2017 SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION 4.0 Freedom of Information (FOI) and Public Access to this Document 4.1 No information has been withheld from this document under FOI exemptions and we do not operate separate full and publication versions. 4.2 All requests for hard copies of this document should be treated as an FOI request. The public may make an FOI request online via WCC’s website. 4.3 This document is published online at www.westminster.gov.uk/parking-policies-and-reports. 5.0 Governance and Version Control 5.1 Previous Editions Version Date V1.0 May 2004 V1.1 March 2005 V1.2 May 2005 V1.3 August 2005 V1.4 September 2005 V1.5 September 2007 (unreleased) V1.6 December 2008 V1.7 December 2011 V1.7.1 (corrigendum) December 2013 V1.8 April 2014 V2.0 July 2014 V3.0 May 2015 V3.1 November 2015 5.2 Ownership This document is owned by WCC Parking Services. 5.3 Updates Ad hoc changes will be communicated to WCC’s kerbside management provider via formal instruction. The instruction will refer to the section of the document that is being updated. The full document will be reissued only when deemed necessary or appropriate by WCC Parking Services. 5.4 Approval Authority All re-issues must be authorised by the WCC Executive Director for City Management and Communities. This copy replaces all previous versions which are now obsolete. 6.0 Definitions 6.1 Marshals and CEOs Marshals are fully qualified CEOs as defined by section 76 of the TMA 2004, being persons authorised by or on behalf of WCC to enforce road traffic contraventions. The term ‘Marshal’ is used to reflect their additional ambassadorial role. However, as they are still fundamentally CEOs, they are still referred to as such on statutory documents. 6.2 Waiting, Parking and Stopping Parking contraventions are contraventions of the relevant TMOs. As described in the RTRA 1984; parking and waiting are synonymous. Waiting consists of stopping a vehicle where restrictions apply and can be described as occurring where the vehicle has been permitted to remain at rest. 6.3 Where drivers are not present, Marshals are not required to locate the driver. Finding and advising a driver to move the vehicle is not practical and is in no way necessary prior to the issue of a PCN. 6.4 Loading/Unloading This activity needs to be visible and the process (i.e. the delivery/collection and the obtaining of any necessary signature etc) needs to be continuous in order to satisfy the concessions for 5 City of Westminster Kerbside Management & Enforcement Code of Practice v4.0 April 2017 SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION loading and unloading. This document details where loading/unloading is and is not permitted and where it is permitted, for how long. 6.5 Private vehicles are only afforded loading/unloading concessions when goods are being loaded/unloaded that are too heavy or bulky to be carried from a legal parking place. The vehicle must therefore be parked at the particular location as a matter of necessity rather than mere convenience. This stipulation does not apply to commercial vehicles. 6.6 Picking Up/Dropping Off of Passengers The definition of picking up/setting down is stopping at the kerbside in order to allow a passenger/passengers to board or alight the vehicle and to load/unload their luggage. In such cases the vehicle should generally not be left unattended. This document details where picking up/setting down is and is not permitted and if so, for how long. 6.7 Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) HGVs are vehicles over 3.5 tonnes in weight. They may have chevrons at the rear although if present these only indicate vehicles that are over 7.5 tonnes.
