Red Route Clearway
Part of the Red Route network is made up of Clearways. On these roads there are signs but no red lines except at some roundabouts and junctions. Stopping is only permitted in marked lay-bys.
Red boxes marked on the road indicate that parking or loading is permitted during the off peak times, normally between 10am and 4pm. There are several different types of box. Some allow loading and unloading. Others allow short term free parking. Special conditions apply to Blue Badge Holders. The rules in each case are clearly shown on a sign beside the box.
