Disabled Person's Parking
 |
Disabled badge holders can park free of charge in any of the Council’s off-street car parks or on-street parking bays.
They may park for a maximum of three hours on single or double yellow lines where there are no loading / unloading restrictions that apply and providing they don’t cause an obstruction to other road users or pedestrians.
Disabled drivers who:
- cause an obstruction at a junction
- park in a way that traffic cannot flow freely
- park where a loading or unloading restriction is in force
- park in a taxi rank, a bus stop, a clearway, a bus stop or on a school “Keep Clear” marking
will be treated as any other driver and will be issued with a Penalty Charge Notices (PCN)
For more information about the blue badge scheme visit the Government site, the Council's Social Services site or read the explanatory booklet.
Blue badge holders can apply for a disabled bay near to their home. Further information can be found at the Request for Non-regulatory 'H', 'KEEP CLEAR' or 'Disabled Bay' Markings page of the website. Subject to conditions.
