 | The Benefits of Decriminalised Parking Enforcement (DPE)
There are several major benefits brought about by the introduction of DPE, including;
- Improved traffic flow through lack of obstructions, therefore saving time and fuel,
- Parking places are easier to find due to a higher turnover in parked vehicles as a result of no illegal all-day parkers. This means less driving to find an empty parking space, saving fuel again,
- Pollution is reduced, due to fewer cars circulating to find an empty parking space and fewer traffic queues caused by illegal parking obstruction,
- Safer streets for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers due to fewer circulating cars and fewer agitated drivers,
- Improved access for emergency vehicles and public transport due to a lack of illegal parking obstruction.
