Illegally parked vehicles
ERYC use parking restrictions, such as yellow lines and marked bays to show where you can and can’t park or stop. These rules help keep roads safe, clear, and traffic flowing. Different types of parking restrictions are in place across the East Riding of Yorkshire.
ERYC are responsible for making sure certain parking rules are followed. The civil enforcement officers (CEOs) are out across the county to check that drivers are parking correctly. If they find a vehicle breaking the rules, they may issue a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN).
Please bear in mind ERYC use a virtual permit system. This means that permits are not displayed in vehicles and are viewed by the CEOs on their handheld devices.
You must check that the vehicle you are reporting is actually parking during the times of the restriction. Parking outside of the restricted hours is permitted.
A vehicle with a valid Blue Badge and clock can park on yellow lines for up to 3 hours, unless there are kerb markings showing that this isn’t allowed.
Inconsiderate parking
Any vehicle may park on a public road where there are no parking restrictions, even if this is outside your property. If a vehicle has parked inconsiderately, not illegally, we can not take any action.
Please note: parking on a grass verge is not a parking violation in itself and ERYC can not take action unless there are other restrictions in place such as single or double yellow lines.
ERYC can not take action when parking is causing an obstruction unless there are other restrictions in place. You can report such obstructions to the police by calling 101 or visiting the Humberside Police website
You can report vehicles being parked where restrictions apply ERYC will look into your report and send an officer to the location if it’s appropriate, but this might not happen straight away. If you have given ERYC your contact details, they will only get in touch if they need more information. You won’t receive an update about any action taken. Please include as much detail as you can.
