RESIDENTS’ PARKING SCHEME
TERMS AND CONDITIONS (FEBRUARY 2021)
This applies to parking within Rope Quays, Mumby Road, Gosport, Hampshire, PO12 1EN/1EQ
A parking enforcement contractor is appointed to patrol the site and may issue fines and notices to vehicles breaching any of these Terms and Conditions.
Note that these T&C’s make reference to both commercial and private vehicles. In cases, such as “pick up trucks”, it is sometime difficult on sight to establish their use. In such cases if the vehicle has a rear hard top it can be considered a private vehicle. If however the rear bed is open or it is clearly being used as a contractors vehicle, then this will be considered as a commercial vehicle.
