Glasgow is set to become the second city in Scotland to introduce a ban on pavement parking which will come into force later in September.

Any driver caught parking on pavements, double parking or parking on dropped kerbs will be issued fixed penalty notices by wardens for up to £100.

In order to help residents know if their street is impacted by the new rules, Glasgow City Council has launched an interactive map. There are a number of streets exempt.

The Scottish Government granted local authorities these powers in December 2023, and while Edinburgh enforced them the following January, the Glasgow roll-out was delayed due to IT issues.

They are aimed at preventing vehicles from blocking pavements and obstructing pedestrians, in the hope it will improve the experience for those with mobility issues, visual impairments, or parents pushing prams.

The council is introducing the rules to areas on a phased basis where assessments have been completed.

This means surveys and road assessments will be taking place with results and recommendations intended to be published by the end of the year.
