A question about Stopping/Parking on a Red Route London
Discussion
Hey Guys,
I'm new to this forum and so far really love it.
Just a quick question relating to London's "Red Routes". I was visiting my girlfriend on Cromwell Road last night at around 9pm and there is an area out side her house with the dashed white lines for parking. The sign says: Red Route No Stopping 8AM to 7PM Monday to Saturday except for disabled badge holders. I'm just trying to clarify does this mean you are able to leave a vehicle there outside of these times? Or just simply stop to collect/drop somebody off. The reason I ask is the nearby parking area was full and I sat there for around 20-30 minutes in the vehicle waiting for my girlfriend to get off the underground. So a little worried I might have been booked by a red route CCTV camera. Just trying to clarify the rules.
This trip to London was certainly a stressful one and wouldn't be surprised If i end up with a Bus Lane ticket as well. Thanks so much!

Do you have a Google Maps link of the specific location and sign? I thought they were all like this one.No mention of disabled badge holders. Just a 20 minute loading* period permitted during the stated hours.
As the double red lines do not continue through the bay you should be OK at 9pm.
* Loading means exactly that, i.e. goods - not 'collecting/dropping off' passengers, during the hours stated on the plate.
