7.6 Bay markings are normally used with the above signs (see table 7-1), although there might be circumstances where such markings are not required, e.g. within a lay—by. The sign to diagram 801, when used without a supplementary plate, does not require an order, but any bay marking with which it is used does. It is unusual to provide such an arrangement along the side of a road, as although it would indicate an area suitable for parking, it would otherwise have no more effect than if no signs or markings were provided at all. The situations where it would however be appropriate to make an order and use a bay marking with a sign to diagram 801 without a supplementary plate are:

(i) where echelon parking along the side of a road is required and the marking to diagram 1033 is used

(ii) in the centre of the carriageway where either diagram 1028.4 or 1033 would be used

(iii) in a controlled parking zone to indicate areas where there are no parking restrictions (see section 12).

The motor cycle bay (diagram 1028.4 with the appropriate legend) may be used without an upright sign (see para 7.1).
