Advisory Disabled Persons Parking Bays
Introduction
We receive many requests for Disabled Persons Parking Bays and
in order to ensure that each one is assessed in a uniform way an
application form has been prepared.
Applicants must have a severe mobility problem, be a car
owner/driver, or live with a car owner/driver, be an orange or blue
badge holder and have no other alternative place to park the
vehicle. For applicants under 65 years of age, they must also be in
receipt of a mobility allowance.
It is not always possible to provide bays because the proposed
location could be situated on junctions, bends or where there is
restricted width of carriageway as this would compromise road
safety. Other locations where it is not possible to provide a bay
are where there are existing waiting restrictions or residents
parking zones.

If you are registered disabled, hold a disabled badge and
require a disabled persons parking bay, please print a copy of
the Disabled Bay Application Form in the column to the left

Or, alternatively, you can phone 01225-394041and ask for an
application form to be sent to you.
If you need to apply for a blue badge then please view our blue
badge page for details of how to do this.
Once the completed application form has been received, a
decision will be made and you will be notified by post whether your
application has been granted or refused.
If granted, the works are carried out the first week of every
month, and your disabled parking bay will be painted at the first
