Dozens of streets are expected to be granted exemptions from the pavement parking ban.
Pavement parking enforcement began in the city in March this year after years of complaints about cars blocking pavements and causing obstructions to pedestrians, people with prams and in wheelchairs.
But a number of streets have been assessed and due to the width will be designated as being exempt.
In total 76 streets are set to be granted an exemption.
From March this year, parking attendants have been able to issue penalty charge notices against any vehicles parked on the pavement on most streets in the city.
An initial assessment found that no exemption should apply on these streets as parking restrictions were already in place or the carriageway was at least 7.5m wide. This is the street width that would allow fire engines to pass through with cars parked on both sides.
There were hundreds of streets that needed further assessment.
Following the assessment all but 76 streets will see the ban enforced
There will be more work done, which will decide how much of the pavement can be used for parking on each of those streets and which side of the road it will be permitted on.
It is expected that this work will be completed next year.
A spokesperson for the Glasgow City Council said: “Pavement parking, double parking and parking at dropped kerbs create road safety hazards across Glasgow and put vulnerable pedestrians and wheelchair users in danger every day. The new restrictions give our parking attendants the power to issue fine against vehicles that contravene these rules and we have been using that power across the city.
“An initial pavement parking assessment excluded a majority of city streets from an exemption on enforcement. A second round of assessment has found that a small minority of streets are now eligible for an exemption from the restrictions.
“Further work is needed in relation to these streets to ensure parking arrangements do not create issues with road safety, access or congestion. Detailed road layout designs will be developed and we expect to begin a formal consultation in early 2026 for the traffic regulation orders needed to make the streets legally exempt.”
