Dispensations and suspensions

Dispensation is where a concession to park on a restricted road is granted. For example:

  • A scaffold lorry on a yellow line where the scaffold is being erected on an adjacent building and there is no alternative place to park
  • A vehicle that has to park in a suspended parking bay

Suspension is where a restricted parking bay (permit, voucher, pay and display etc) is suspended for a legitimate purpose. For example:

  • House move
  • Supply of electricity

Applying for a parking dispensation or a parking suspension
