How to apply for a Disabled Person’s Parking Place
In order to be eligible to apply for a disabled person’s parking place to be created near your home, you firstly need to be a Blue Badge holder. Please note the disabled person’s parking place is not allocated to a specific person and may be used by anyone who has a Blue Badge. It may not be possible to create a disabled person’s parking place in some areas because of the disruption this will cause to local traffic.
