London Red Routes
............................................................................................................................................
The
law governing parking and loading signs and markings on red routes is
separate from those covering other roads. The signs and lines are not
contained in the TSRGD but under separate DfT approvals. It is called the
"Authorisation of traffic signs and road markings for red route controls on
GLA roads and GLA side roads" and can be seen below.
However the process for
issuing tickets is the same.

Summary
|
 |
*Update 2012* Double red lines
now no longer require a sign. This also applies to bus
stops. I will post the new DfT authorisation ASAP.
Single red
lines should have a limited time sign and these times and
days can be varied. |
|
 |
Where signs indicate
that parking or loading is allowed at any time of day, these should be accompanied
by a white box. Minimum width of a bay is 1.75m, max is 2.5m. |
|
 |
Where signs indicate
that parking or loading is allowed only during certain times, these should be
accompanied by a red box. | |

The page
below shows the sign and roadmarking combinations that need to be used together.
From this you can see that for instance, a "No stopping at any time" sign
represented by E and F must be accompanied by reference V,
B1, which is a double red line.
