Changes in TSRGD 2016

Pedestrian Zones

11.2
Road markings indicating a prohibition of waiting and loading within a pedestrian zone may be dispensed with, whether or not the zone has separately defined carriageways and footways. A pedestrian zone may be signed in a similar manner to a restricted zone. Where the period during which waiting restrictions apply is greater than the operational period of the pedestrian zone, there is no need to provide conventional signs and road markings within the zone. The bottom yellow panel on the entry sign will indicate the period that waiting is prohibited, with pedestrian zone "no waiting / no loading" signs placed at strategic intervals within the zone. For example, where entry into a pedestrian zone is prohibited on Monday to Saturday from 10am to 4pm, and the waiting restrictions apply from 8am to 6pm on the same days, these times will be shown in the top and bottom panels of the entry sign respectively.
