Parking is free in all District Council car parks for blue badge holders. Designated easy access parking bays are available in each car park, but if they are full then you may park in any other car parking bay. Bridgefoot Multi Storey and Unicorn Meadow car parks are operated by a barrier system. To enable the Disabled blue Badge holder to utilise the free parking in these car parks, the badge holder will need to apply for a passcard to operate the barriers.

Parking On Street with a Blue Disabled Badge:
In a parking bay, badge holders may park for free and for as long as they need to unless there is a traffic sign specifying a time limit for disabled badge holders or the traffic sign states that the bay is for a specific use only, for example taxi rank.
Blue badges must be clearly displayed with the wheelchair symbol showing upwards. Please refer to your Department of Transport Blue Badge Scheme booklet for information on your rights and responsibilities.
