This precedent is a Road Traffic Order made by a traffic authority in exercise of the powers conferred upon it under the Road Traffic Act 1984 (RTRA 1984). It is crucial to name in the order every subsection of RTRA 1984 or otherwise which permits the authority to make the order. A traffic order outside London is referred to as a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO), within London the equivalent traffic order is called a Traffic Management Order (TMO). This precedent is a prohibition of waiting (parking restriction), but it can be modified for other prohibitions such as loading or double parking. The order specifies the area of the road affected and lists purposes for which a vehicle may lawfully wait in the area affected, such as to enable a person to board or alight from the vehicle. The procedure for making road traffic orders is governed by the Local Authorities’ Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations 1996, SI 1996/2489.
