There has been some confusion over whether traffic wardens can give tickets for parking on the roads behind Beveridge Way shops as they are “unadopted”
Lee Mowbray, major projects traffic manager, said: “Waiting restrictions are implemented on private land and enforced by the county council when the land owner has given consent for a Traffic Regulation Order to be introduced.
There are a number of such areas within Newton Aycliffe town centre that are owned by the town centre management company. These restrictions were agreed with the land owner prior to them being put in place and may be enforced to aid road safety in this busy area of the town.”
