Find information about bus stop restrictions and what you can do if you get a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN) when parked at a bus stop.

Parking at a bus stop

You cannot park at a bus stop. Only a bus can use a bus stop or stand.

Penalty Charge Notices (PCNs) for parking at a bus stop

If a Civil Enforcement Officer (CEO) sees you parked at a bus stop, we can issue a Regulation 10 PCN by post. This will be sent to the registered keeper of the vehicle.

You can then either pay the PCN or appeal the PCN.
