In 2005, Cambridgeshire County Council took over parking enforcement from the police. The local authority needed a partner that could keep traffic moving and allow the city to thrive.
The brief
To keep Cambridge's road network operating effectively by applying balanced and considered parking compliance.
The OCS solution
OCS has worked in the parking industry for over 75 years and our experts advise the council on traffic management and parking enforcement.
We provide a team of 24 civil enforcement officers. Together, they manage over 40km2 of city streets, patrolling on foot, by motor scooter and by bicycle.
Our colleagues are ambassadors for the city and every officer undergoes training and assessment before beginning their customer-facing duties.
We work with the council to ensure high standards and drive improvements, meeting weekly with the customer to monitor performance.
We enjoy working with OCS enforcement officers and the team to provide the highest levels of professional service and customer satisfaction in the city. Good enforcement is essential to keeping Cambridge on the move, reducing congestion and supporting our local businesses.
