Enforcement Of Illegal Parking
Where a vehicle is obstructing traffic or is illegally parked along parking restriction lines on public roads, the traffic warden will issue a Notice of Parking Offence (NOPO). The NOPO will be handed to the driver on the spot (if driver is present) or placed on the windscreen of the vehicle (eg. vehicle is unattended).
In cases whereby illegal parking is enforced by enforcement cameras (such as Closed-Circuit TV cameras) or lodged through public complaints, no NOPO will be issued on the spot. For such cases, a Notice of Traffic Offence will be issued to the registered vehicle owner for the parking offence via postal mail.
