Parking: Pedestrian Areas

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government how many prosecutions of vehicles illegally in cycle boxes (advanced stop lines) there have been in (1) the UK, and (2) the Metropolitan Police jurisdiction.

Answer

The Ministry of Justice publishes data on the number of prosecutions at criminal courts in England and Wales between 2010 and June 2024 in the Outcomes by Offences data tool, that can be downloaded from the Criminal Justice Statistics landing page here: Criminal Justice Statistics Quarterly: June 2024.

However, prosecutions for vehicles illegally in cycle boxes (advanced stop lines) cannot be separately identified from the broader offence of ‘failing to comply with traffic lights, signals or signs’ in the Court Proceedings database.
