In order to benefit from the concession and be exempt from the pay and display charges before 11am and after 4pm daily, the badge must be displayed clearly on the windscreen of your vehicle. Only one free badge is available to each household.

The badge is issued for use under the following conditions:-

• It is only valid on the District Council's Pay and Display car parks.
• It is valid for use before 11.00AM and after 4.00PM, at all other times you must pay and display.
• Displaying the badge will enable you to park without paying, but all other rules apply.
• You may buy a 1 hour parking ticket before 11am and display it alongside your badge to extend your stay to 12 noon. (Maximum extension 1 hour, valid on day of purchase only).

Please look after the badge as free replacements will not be issued.
