Street parking - permitsThere are various types of parking permits available and they all exempt the holder of the permit from all or part of a parking restriction. Two of the more common types of permit are outlined below.Residents' parking permitsResidents' parking permits are issued in areas where residents parking schemes operate. Although there is no legal right for any vehicle owner to park on the public highway, residents' parking schemes can be introduced to assist those living in areas near town centres and large developments where there is considerable on-street parking. These schemes impose constraints on both residents and non-residents and the implications of introducing them must be considered very carefully. Parking permits for disabled peopleUnder the blue badge scheme, disabled people who possess a blue badge may park for up to three hours on yellow lines and without charge or time-limit at parking meters. They may also park in bays specifically provided for use by disabled people. If you would like further information about disabled parking facilities in off-street public car parks, please contact your local district council.
