Parking permits - residential, visitors and market traders

Residents' parking zones

Residents parking zones are designed to help ensure street parking is available for residents close to their homes. You can see which streets are covered by parking zones below.

A permit will let you park where you see residents' parking signs. If there are no free parking spaces, it does not allow you to park on a double or single yellow line.

If you live in a residents parking zone and have a car or van with a height of no more than 2.28 meters, you will normally be able to get a resident's permit.

Permits are virtual. You no longer need to display a paper permit in your vehicle and you can apply online at the Permit Smarti website (link opens in new window).
