Cost of fees

The Royal Borough is increasing the charges for suspending a parking bay from 1 April 2022.

The suspension fee is chargeable per day and per space, with fees increasing to discourage long term suspensions. The new fee per space will be £62 for each of the first 5 days, then £93 daily from day 6 to day 42 and £124 daily from day 43 upwards.

Further information about parking suspensions and how to apply, is available on the Parking suspensions page.

The cost of licences for skips and temporary structures or material on the highway will also increase from 1 April 2022.
