What is a Blue Badge?
A Blue Badge entitles the holder to a range of local parking benefits. These benefits may be:
- free parking at parking meters
- use of designated parking spaces
- in some circumstances parking on single or double yellow lines.
The scheme applies to badge holders as drivers or when being carried as a passenger.
Badges are normally valid for a period of three years. At the end of this period you will need to reapply.

Increased phone calls make a demand on our resources which has an impact on our ability to meet your requirement.
