The Government reminds members of the public that the fixed penalty for illegal parking offences will be increased from $320 to $400 from January 1.

On the same day, the fixed penalties for 19 other traffic-related offences will be adjusted upward from the current $320 to $1,000 range, with a new scale of $480 to $1,500.

The Transport & Logistics Bureau said the Government will strive to increase the supply of parking spaces to meet public demand and will strengthen road safety publicity and education.
