Apply for a disabled parking bay

To qualify for a disabled parking bay, you must meet the following criteria:

• Have a vehicle registered at your residence
• Hold a current Blue Badge
• Demonstrate a genuine need for the bay being requested
• Not have access to private parking within or near the premises the bay is required for

Certain applications are subject to additional checks, which may include an assessment of the applicant’s needs, by the One Stop Resource Centre prior to a decision being taken on the application.

Should you apply and we consider it appropriate to process your application, we will consult with local residents and statutory bodies. We may also have to produce and publicise a TRO. Therefore, it can be a lengthy process to introduce a disabled parking bay.

For example, an application for an advisory disabled parking bay to be introduced, where no objections are received, usually takes between 6 to 9 months to process.

If you meet the criteria, you can apply for a disabled parking bay online.
