Guide to parking
Where visitors can park
During controlled parking hours, all visitors must park in:
- pay-by-phone parking bays
- or off-street public car parks
There are no uncontrolled areas in the borough and we do not issue visitor vouchers.
Outside of controlled parking hours anyone can park for free in:
- any resident permit bay
- pay-by-phone parking bays
- on single yellow lines
Please check the signs carefully because operational times for residents' bays differ across the borough.
