Suspend a parking bay

Apply for a parking bay suspension

Applications must be submitted at least 5 working days prior to the date you require your suspension to start.  

You can apply online, and will need the following information:

• exact location
• reason
• date(s)
• number of parking spaces

Suspension fees

Parking suspensions are charged at a daily rate of £40 per day for a resident permit parking space (a 5-metre length), and £55 per day for an on street paid parking place (a 5-metre length). There is an administration fee of £130 per application. 

You should pay in advance of the suspension being carried out. However, if payment can’t be made in advance we’ll need a purchase order number, with payment being provided shortly afterwards.

Cancellations or changes

Should you need to change or cancel the suspension you have booked, please contact our parking permit team at least 7 days before the date your suspension is due to start.

There may be additional fees to pay for amendments.  If you need to cancel your suspension, we will advise you of any refund due.

Skip operator licence

If you’re carrying out building work and require a skip you’ll need to get a skip operator license

Social distancing locations which we cannot suspend

To aid social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic, there are barriers and parklets installed in town centres, taking those parking bays out of use.  These locations are listed below.  If you require a suspension in the vicinity of these locations, you must contact us to discuss options before making an application.  We cannot suspend parking bays which have been repurposed as a parklet but will do our best to assist with your requirements.  You can find general information about these measures here.
