Access protection markings

Salford City Council can sometimes provide access protection markings, at a property owner's expense, which may help to prevent vehicles parking across private access ways.

This marking costs £50 and comprises of an elongated "H" marking on the carriageway.  Its function is to alert drivers to the fact that there is a private access at that point which must be kept clear.

This type of roadmarking is not enforceable but does serve to highlight that any vehicle parking there is creating an obstruction - which can be dealt with by the police.

Before an access protection marking can be undertaken, the property owner must have an approved dropped crossing and hard standing where their vehicle is parked.
