Payments and online forms unavailable from 7pm until 7:30pm

On Monday 16 February you will not be able to submit forms or make payments between 7pm and 7:30pm. We will be doing essential maintenance on our website.

This means you will not be able to do things like pay or apply for parking permits, parking tickets (PCNs), council tax and rent online or call the automated payment line (020 7527 8000).

We are very sorry about this. If you need to make a payment or do something else online, please try a different day or time.

Illegal Street Trading and Obstructions

All licensed street traders must display their license or a stall card if trading in our markets, kiosks, on private land and scattered sites.

The same applies to businesses displaying advertising boards and setting out tables and chairs on the public highway, including using shop fronts to display their goods. All licenses contain conditions, which the license holder is expected to comply with, that help to ensure pavements are kept clear of obstructions so that everyone can move about safely.

If you suspect a trader is illegally trading or causing a highway obstruction, please report to us. We can investigate the matter and take enforcement action if there is evidence to support this.
