How to apply or renew
Use our online system to apply for or renew your permit.
When applying please ensure the correct year is selected.
We use an online system for purchasing a parking permit. By using the system you will no longer receive a physical permit, instead receiving a virtual permit.
Permits can be shared between 2 vehicles however cannot be used at the same time. The virtual permit system can register when the permit is being used fraudulently. If this is found to be the case your permit will be cancelled and no refund issued.
Please ensure you enter the correct registration number into the system - particular care should be taken when entering 0 (zero, the number) and O (the letter). Mistakes will result in the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice.
