Street parking advice

When parking in a pay to park bay (whether on the road or in a car park) make sure that the vehicle is totally within the bay or, at the very least, all wheels are within it and not over the markings.  

Never park in suspended bays, as suspensions are arranged for good reasons, e.g., road works, gas leaks or other emergencies. Signs giving details of the specific bays and suspension period will be on display at the location.  Ignoring a suspension may lead to the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN).

In all on-street pay to park bays and council operated car parks, except the Civic Centre multi-storey car park, you can only pay for parking using a mobile phone and your debit/credit. This is a quick and easy way to arrange payment of the tariff and you can extend your parking session without returning to your vehicle.

Always ensure you have arranged your parking session through RingGo before leaving your vehicle. A PCN may be issued if a vehicle is left unattended and there is no evidence of parking time being purchased.
