Redbridge Council is considering a vehicle removal and car pound service to address parking offenders, utilising powers from the London Local Authorities and Transport for London Act 2007.

Redbridge Council is considering adopting a vehicle removal and car pound service to address persistent parking offenders, a proposal discussed at a Clean and Green Policy Development Committee meeting in November 2025. This service, which would use powers from the London Local Authorities and Transport for London Act 2007, aims to improve traffic management and ensure transparency through strict removal criteria.

The proposed service would be tendered alongside the existing Civil Enforcement Service contract, currently managed by APCOA. The tender would allow the contractor to use a car pound facility outside the borough. No further discussions or decisions on this topic are currently scheduled at Redbridge Council or other councils.
