Parking on estates

This section contains information about the housing department's Parking Regulation Scheme (PRS). These are introduced at the request of residents and are in place to ensure the effective control of traffic management to maximise available parking to residents and their visitors around blocks and estates in the borough.

Estates covered by a PRS

Estates covered by a PRS display clear signs advising motorists that parking regulations are in force.

Find out if your street or estate is covered by a PRS or by a CPZ (controlled parking zone).

Estate parking permits are not valid in Controlled Parking Zones on the public highway.

Any vehicle parking on estates must display a valid permit and a current road tax disc in their windscreen or face receiving a Parking Enforcement Notice. A financial penalty applies to any vehicle receiving a notice.

Disabled parking - Blue Badges

Residents parking in a disabled bay on a council housing estate covered by a PRS will need to display a valid tax disc for the vehicle being used and a valid Blue Badge. Failure to show both of these items will result in a Parking Enforcement Notice.

Applying for a Blue Badge

To obtain advice on the application process or to request an application form for a Blue Badge please contact the concessionary travel team or telephone 020 8871 8871.
