Waltham Forest earned 6,337,600 from parking fines in the last year, issuing over 158,440 penalty charge notices (PCNs). National Scrap Cars reported this figure, noting that Waltham Forest has strict regulations under the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) impacting drivers. Only Manchester earned more from parking fines. Local authorities, like Waltham Forest Council, emphasize that revenue from fines aids in enhancing road conditions and supporting local services, ensuring safer public spaces. This money is particularly crucial for funding infrastructure and promoting community continuity.
As a London authority under ULEZ, drivers in Walthamstow are subject to strict enforcement measures to regulate parking and traffic flow, which can make parking rules trickier to understand.
Any income from parking fines is used to improve local roads, benefiting all road users, and to pay for freedom passes to keep older and disabled residents connected.
