Please note

  • we will normally only approve a bay where there is a known parking issue
  • after surveying the site, it may be found that a bay cannot be marked due to existing parking restrictions, road safety or traffic management issues; we can also only mark bays when we have the staff and resources available
  • you should be aware that creation of a disabled parking space involves a formal legislative process, which will take at least six months to complete, after approval of your application
  • all the disabled persons' parking spaces can be used by any blue badge holder
