Apply for visitor parking permits

If you live at an eligible property in a permit scheme, you will be able to apply online for a virtual visitor permits (vouchers) for guests to park in the relevant zone for the duration of their stay. The type and amount of vouchers you can apply for within a 12 month period will depend on the permit zone.

Visitor permits do have an expiry date and you can view this in your online account. Any unused vouchers left on your visitor permit account when it expires will be lost. We only recommend you apply for the number of visitor permits you actually require. Refunds are not provided for unused visitor permits.

Our officers will be able to check if a visitor permit session is active for a vehicle while on patrol.
