During operational hours, visitors to households in a PPA will need to display a Resident’s Visitor Permit.

Households in Permit Parking Areas (PPAs) are entitled to 50 free hours of visitor parking vouchers per house per year. 

You need to apply online to get your book of free vouchers or to pay for more.

You’ll need to provide proof of residence, which must be:

  • a valid or current tenancy agreement, or
  • a Council Tax letter (must be current financial year), or
  • a utility bill (gas/electric/water) no more than 3 months old, or
  • if you are moving into the area, we will need confirmation of your new address (such as a solicitor's letter or a tenancy agreement)
