Private access protection markings (H Bar)

Page updated on: 07/09/2023

Criteria for the provision of Private Access Markings

The white bar marking is reserved for those sites where there is a persistent problem, with frequent obstruction of an access.
The lines are intended to deter drivers who would otherwise park across an access. Therefore they can be placed in residential streets with a high parking demand by non-residents e.g. near shopping or commercial areas. They will not be used where parking obstruction is by neighbours.
They shall be laid in accordance with the Road Marking Regulations and in white non-reflective material.
It should be noted that these markings have no legal standing. However if a vehicle does park on them, the presence of the line would tend to support the offence of obstruction.
Site visit will be conducted on receipt of your initial application. Please do not send any payment whilst investigations are ongoing. Once the investigation has been completed a Traffic Management Officer will contact you to confirm if your application has been successful or not.
