Parking Enforcement Frequently Asked Questions

RBWM does NOT clamp cars under any circumstances.

If you were clamped you were probably in a private car park eg. the car park behind the Theatre Royal, Windsor overlooking the river and we are aware that clampers often operate there.

We regret that we cannot become involved in a clamping dispute, as we do not have jurisdiction.

Clampers do not need a licence from us to operate on private property.
