We plan to introduce the regulations early this year, to come into force in the summer. Once the powers are commenced, local authorities wanting to undertake civil enforcement of moving traffic contraventions, including prescribed traffic signs for use at school street schemes, will need to apply to the Secretary of State for an Order to be made designating the council as the enforcement authority in their area.
