FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make inquiries or express a concern regarding a ticket?
A ticket is a legal document and should remain with the person it was issued to. If you feel a ticket was issued in error, a ticket review may be requested within five days of receiving the ticket. Tickets will not be reviewed after five days, but may be contested in court.
The owner of the vehicle is required to contact By-Law Enforcement at 506-853-3333 or by e-mail at info.enforcement [at] moncton.ca. The ticket number, issued date as well as your name and contact information will be required in order to commence a review. The review is to ensure any errors are addressed prior to further legal action being taken (warning letter, summons to appear, court proceedings).
How long will it take to get the result of a ticket review?
Ten business days.
