Motorcycles

Motorcycles are exempt from charges in on-street and off-street pay and display bays. They are not exempt from the time limits in force in the place where they park.

Where possible motorcyclists should aim to park within designated motorcycle bays. Where this is not possible, they can park within a marked parking bay. For example, a motorcycle may park in an ordinary bay within a 3 hour time limited disc parking car park.

They do not need to display a parking disc. They must not park for longer than 3 hours.

Motorcycles cannot park within:

  • disabled bays
  • loading bays
  • taxi ranks
  • on yellow lines
  • bus stops
  • residents only streets
  • permit holders only bays (without a permit)
  • opposite a dropped kerb
