The traffic order challenge


T


he complex and exacting procedure for producing, recording and updating traffi c orders is a challenge for many local authorities but is a central process in all effective parking enforcement. Under statutory guidance all traffi c signs and road markings must match their respective traffi c orders in every detail and failure to do so can result in a large number of penalty charge notices (PCNs) having to be refunded. Diffi culties in producing traffi c orders can arise both in developing a set of base information that is fi t for purpose and then in maintaining and updating this position. However, technology can help. Geographic information software (GIS), such as ParkMap, is the industry standard for making and recording traffi c orders and if used correctly can make the process of producing and managing traffi c orders more timely and cost-effective.
