The full list of proposed pavement parking ban exemptions on streets across Dundee has been revealed.
Dundee City Council began enforcing the rules in February after a change in national legislation.
The rules are designed to keep pavements clear for people with mobility issues or using pushchairs.
In the first three months of the rules being enforced in Dundee, nearly 700 fines were dished out – including six to one driver on the same street.
Until now, no streets have been exempt from the rules.
However, the local authority plans to introduce exemptions on 31 roads across the city.
Residents can have their say on these plans over the next couple of weeks before they are introduced fully.
Exemptions can apply where a minimum width of 1.5m of unobstructed pavement can be maintained.
A road can also be made exempt if an emergency vehicle would be blocked should other vehicles be parked on the road.
