Sometimes it's necessary for vehicles to park in restricted areas to carry out works to nearby properties. For example, parking on yellow lines, or staying all day in a limited stay parking area
In these cases, you'll need to pay for a parking waiver from the council.
A parking waiver allows a vehicle to be parked as near as possible to the desired location.
However, it a parking waiver does not allow parking on:
- a loading restriction during its hours of operation (marked by yellow kerb lines)
- a bus stop
- a taxi rank
- school 'keep clear' markings
- zigzag markings on a pedestrian crossing or crossing area
- anywhere that would cause an obstruction or a road safety hazard
If you do not comply with these conditions, you may be given a Penalty Charge Notice. You must move your vehicles if asked to do so by a Civil Enforcement Officer or police officer.
Parking waivers cost £16 per vehicle per day. You can pay by debit card or credit card. To find out more about getting a parking waiver, please call 01642 726003.
