Since 24th October 2023, renewing a parking permit has changed slightly. This relates to residents who have more than one parking permit at an address.
When you renew your parking permit for the first time, it becomes your first permit at that address. This applies even if you have other active parking permits.
The first permit renewed will be priced as the 1st permit at that address. The next permit renewed will be priced as the 2nd permit at that address. The same pricing applies to all future renewals at that address. For fees, see our Resident parking permit fees page.
A tip for residents
The order you renew your permits in could save you money. Here is an example of a resident with two expiring parking permits at one property. The resident has two active parking permits for:
- a large vehicle with high CO2 emissions
- a small vehicle with low CO2 emissions.
If the resident renewed the permit for vehicle 1 first, they would get the lower rate for the higher emission vehicle.
Residents pay more for each additional permit. This means it would be more cost effective to register lower emission vehicles afterwards.
Seniors or Mobility parking permit discounts
Residents applying for this discount for the first time after October 2023 must upload their proof again. Residents will only have to provide this the first time they apply. They will not need to do this every year they renew.
