DfT TMA 2004: Part 6 Civil enforcement of traffic contraventions
The provisions in Part 6 build on and strengthen the successful civil enforcement regime (including parking) introduced by the Road Traffic Act 1991, the Transport Act 2000 and London legislation. Harmonised England wide legislation under the Traffic Management Act will mean that authorities outside London will be able to enforce moving traffic contraventions, such as yellow box junctions and one way streets, as well as bus lanes.
