Vehicles parked within a residents' priority parking scheme (ResPark) zone without a valid permit may receive a parking ticket.
You can call the free parking hotline, telephone: 0800 1381119, to report vehicles that are parking without displaying a valid permit.
- the parking hotline is available 7 days a week during enforcement hours
- we aim to attend within 45 minutes of receiving your call
Please note that Blue Badge holders can park in ResPark zones without displaying a permit, but a valid Blue Badge must be on display in the vehicle.
Other vehicles are allowed to park within ResPark zones for the permitted waiting time only (shown on ResPark signs).
Abuse of the scheme
If you are a member of the ResPark scheme, you must not:
- sell permits
- give permits to others who do not live within the ResPark zone
- display a copy of your permit rather than the original
If you report someone abusing the scheme we will investigate the situation in confidence.
If abuse has been confirmed we can withdraw permits and/or issue a parking ticket to the vehicle concerned.
