We have created a number of residents' permit schemes.

These zones aim to protect on-street parking spaces outside people's houses, in areas where parking is limited, and problems are caused by parking by commuters and shoppers, etc.

Permits are available online, via the Permit Portal, for businesses in a Virtual Permit Zone.

Parking in a Residents' Parking Zone when it is in operation without a valid permit is not allowed and you are likely to get a parking ticket.

If you do have a parking permit you should be aware that this does not guarantee you a place to park your vehicle, it only gives you permission to do so if space is available.

There is a new Permit Scheme that went on 19 July 2023 in the Trinity Street / Burges area. Access to the area is restricted to Permit Holders and Authorised Vehicles between 10am and 6pm, Monday to Saturday.
