Estate parking enforcement

To avoid us taking action against you or removing your vehicle, please keep to the following rules.

• You must only park in:
• a garage or parking space that you rent from us
• a designated parking area
• areas on the estate where you have a permit to park

• You must clearly display a current tax disc at all times.

• Your vehicle must have a valid MOT certificate and be road worthy

• Your vehicle must:
• not be more than two metres (six foot and six inches) high
• not be more than 1.83 metres (six foot) wide
• not be more than 4.8 metres (16 foot) long
• weigh no more than 7.5 tonnes

• Your vehicle's measurements can only go over these limits if you do not use it for business reasons and we have given our permission in writing.

• You must not leave your vehicle outside a garage if it prevents people from using the garages.

• Your vehicle must not have any serious damage unless you have told us about it and we have agreed that it is not dangerous.
• You must not park anywhere that stops other residents from getting to their homes or prevents them from using their parking space or other facilities such as bin areas.


• You must not park anywhere that prevents police cars, fire engines and ambulances from getting to an emergency.
• You must not do anything that puts at risk the health and safety of residents.

Exceptions

As long as you are not causing a health and safety risk, we will not normally take action against you if:

• You have a valid Blue Badge clearly displayed on your vehicle's dashboard.
• You have a valid Southwark Housing parking permit clearly displayed on your vehicle's windscreen.
• You are registered as an undertaker and are on our estates on business.
• You are in an ambulance, police car or fire engine.
• Your vehicle is taken without your permission (for example, it is stolen).
