If your address is not eligible

Your address is not eligible for a permit if it's:

  • outside a CPZ
  • within a CPZ Exemption Zone
  • subject to a planning condition

CPZ Exemption Zones

This is an area within a CPZ where parking permit controls do not apply.

Parking bays are usually free to use, so residents and businesses in these areas may not need a parking permit.
