Highways
The majority of issues relating to highways are the
responsibility of Essex County Council. Their remit includes road
safety, lining and signing, road maintenance, street lighting,
road adoption, school crossing controls, safety cameras, gritting,
snow and ice clearance and requests for
yellow-lines etc. To contact the Highways Section, please phone
01268 297500 or email: highways.southarea@essex.gov.uk
Rochford District Council operates as an agent for Essex County
Council enforcing On-Street Traffic Regulation Orders (yellow lines
etc) throughout the District. However, we cannot
enforce pavement parking or obstruction of the public highway,
all of which remains the responsibility of Essex Police.
Parking
Rochford District Council provides
over 1000 Off-Street car parking spaces together with free
On-Street limited waiting bays in the town centres. There are also
several bays marked for blue badge holders. Operational times
and tariffs for Off-Street car parks are available below along with
a link to pay a Parking Fine (PCN) online.

Abandoned Vehicles
Abandoned Vehicles are an eyesore and a
detriment to the area and environment they are found in. They can
be dangerous and encourage antisocial behaviour. Rochford District
Council aim to remove abandoned vehicles as quickly as
possible. Do not assume that it has already been
reported!
