Business and trade parking permits in Scarborough

Business parking permit

Price

• £165 per permit

Terms and conditions

If a business is located within a disc zone area (excluding Scarborough Town Centre) the owner may be eligible to apply for a business permit.

A business within a disc zone is entitled to apply for one permit to allow a vehicle to park within the relevant zone for an unlimited time for business purposes. 

A business permit is only valid within the zone in which the business is located. 

The permit does not have a vehicle registration attached to it, so it may be transferred between vehicles which work at the business. 

If you need more than one business permit, we will consider the request. A letter to support the request for further permits must be enclosed with the application form. 

Business permits are for use for business purposes only. They are not to be used for personal or residential purposes.
