Moving Traffic Enforcement frequently asked questions

We started the enforcement of existing moving traffic restrictions, initially at 12 problem locations, in order to improve road safety and reduce congestion.

What will happen to the money from Penalty Charge Notices?

Safety is our priority. We are implementing these powers to make a difference on our highway network rather than as a source of financial income.

Surplus income, once the operational costs have been met, will be used for highway improvement projects in line with strict government guidelines.

This funding will only be used for projects helping to achieve the following objectives:

  • Improve road safety.
  • Tackle congestion on our roads.
  • Increase public transport reliability.
  • Improve air quality.
  • Increase the life span of highway assets.
