We issue fines (penalty charge notice or PCNs) for the following types of illegal parking:

• parking on yellow lines
• not displaying a valid parking ticket
• parking on pavements or verges where a restriction is in place
• parking across driveways

We do not get involved with neighbourly disputes or inconsiderate parking.

If you think a vehicle is abandoned, please go to our abandoned or unwanted vehicle page and report it here.  

To report an illegally parked vehicle, please contact the Enforcement Team on enforcement.team@bedford.gov.uk or 01234 718359. Or text only enforcement requests to 07553895403.

An enforcement officer will respond to your request as soon as possible, but they may not be able to do so immediately if they are patrolling elsewhere in the Borough.

Please note you won't get a reply about the outcome of an enforcement officer visit.
