Modifiers / exceptions
Sundays & Bank Holidays Free
In plain English
Parking restrictions on this sign do not apply on Sundays or bank holidays.
What it means
Many UK parking restrictions exclude Sundays and bank holidays. A modifier line on the sign — 'except Sundays', 'Mon–Sat', or 'Sundays and bank holidays free' — explicitly tells you the restriction is suspended. Always check: some city centre and event-day restrictions DO apply on Sundays, so don't assume Sunday is free without confirming.
