Parking for people with disabilities
Parking areas with these signs are set aside to give mobility parking permit holders easy access to places such as supermarkets, libraries and community centres.
To park here you must display a mobility parking permit on your front window. Otherwise, you may be fined or have your vehicle towed away.
For information on how to get a permit, and the special parking conditions that go with it, contact CCS Disability Action.
