Your FAQ

Question: Can I get a permit to park on the yellow lines outside my house or business?

Answer: There is no permit scheme as such that allows parking on yellow lines. However, you may apply for a Parking Dispensation for a location where alternative arrangements cannot be made for the following principal reasons:
Loading/Unloading where this activity is either normally prohibited or the permitted period is insufficient, or situations where alternative arrangements would be unsatisfactory. A dispensation does not permit ‘general’ parking’. It does not allow the vehicle to remain in the restricted/prohibited area once the dispensation purpose has been fulfilled. Dispensations are charged at £15 per vehicle per day.
