Zone 21 parking permit guidance
Three types of permits are available:
- 30 minutes permit
- One day permit
- 12 months permit
30 minute permits cost £1 and one day permits cost £10. These are available over the counter at Gateway.
12-month permits cost £60. You can apply using our online form on business parking permits.
Eligibility
Any person who needs to use the Zone 21 ‘Permit holder’ bays in connection with events at the Guildhall or Guildhall Square can apply for a permit.
You can also apply for a permit for so long as is necessary to load or unload a vehicle at nearby premises. This applies if it cannot conveniently be parked in any other road for this purpose.
When applying for the permit you will need to specify why it is needed.
Use of the permit
These permits are for loading and unloading a vehicle only. They are not to be used as a parking permit. Once loading or unloading has completed, the vehicle should be removed from the area.
Loading and unloading is only permitted in the ‘Permit holder’ bays designated for this purpose. Anyone wishing to park in these bays to load or unload a vehicle may need to obtain a permit.
If a vehicle is parked within a ‘Permit holder’ bay without a valid permit it will attract the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice.
The permit is only valid for use in the bays designated for Zone 21 permit holders.
If the vehicle is parked in any other area, it will attract the issue of a Penalty Charge Notice.
