Disabled parking - Blue Badge

A Blue Badge helps you to park close to your destination, either as a passenger or driver. A badge holder can park for free:

in allocated disabled bays and on the road
in any car park for the maximum stay (in line with terms and conditions on display)
on single or double yellow lines for up to 3 hours.

It can take up to 4 months to process your application. Before applying make sure you have all the documents we need.
