Guide To Blue Badge Parking
There is no single national rule for residents’ bays. The national Blue Badge concessions do not automatically include resident-only bays; councils set local rules. Some allow Blue Badge parking in resident bays; others prohibit it. What this means: If your street is “Permit Holders Only” (or similar), check the sign and your council’s website. If resident bays aren’t listed among places Blue Badges can be used, you’ll likely need a resident permit/exemption or a dedicated disabled bay issued by the council.
