01/04/08 - New parking rules for Braehead Shopping Centre

Braehead Shopping Centre has launched a scheme to fine drivers who park in spaces reserved for disabled people.  The shopping centre brought in the new rules on Monday, March 31, which means anyone parking in one of the 387 clearly-marked disabled spaces without a valid disabled badge will be fined �60. 

 The Braehead car parks will be patrolled and fines enforced by a private company, Town and City Parking who are DVLA and BPA approved. Drivers who fail to pay the Civil Penalty Notice - which is reduced to �30 if paid within ten days, will be traced via DVLA and pursued for payment. People who park on double yellow lines in the centre’s car parks will also be liable to a �60 fine.
