On-street parking
No stopping for any purpose at any time
What it means
Red route rules at their strictest: no stopping at any time, not to load and not to drop someone off. Two exceptions need no sign at all: a licensed taxi may pick up or set down passengers, and a vehicle displaying a Blue Badge may stop to set down or pick up a disabled person - neither may wait or park. Double red lines on the road mean the same thing. You MUST NOT stop here, so if you need to pull up, use a marked red route bay.
