Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Order designates part of the area of each of The Buckinghamshire County Council, The Lincolnshire County Council and the Council of the City of Salford as a civil enforcement area for parking contraventions and as a special enforcement area for the purposes of Part 6 of the Traffic Management Act 2004.

It simultaneously revokes the Road Traffic (Permitted Parking Area and Special Parking Area) (City of Salford) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/894) made under the predecessor designation scheme contained in the Road Traffic Act 1991. The roads that were excluded in the 2001 Order are now included within the designated area except for the M60, M61, M62 and M602 motorways which will continue to be excluded under the Traffic Management Act 2004 by this Order.

This Order also amends the Bus Lane Contraventions (Approved Local Authorities) (England) Order 2005 (S.I. 2005/2755, “the 2005 Order”).

The Bus Lane Contraventions (Penalty Charges, Adjudication and Enforcement) (England) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/2757), made under section 144 of the Transport Act 2000, provide for the enforcement of bus lane restrictions through the imposition, by approved local authorities, of penalty charges in respect of contraventions of such restrictions. By amending the 2005 order, this order specifies The Lincolnshire County Council as an approved local authority for the purposes of that section.

An impact assessment has not been produced as no impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen. An Explanatory Memorandum is available alongside the instrument on the UK legislation website, www.legislation.gov.uk.
