Season tickets for car parks

If you regularly park in our car parks, a season ticket could save you time and money. This option is particularly beneficial for full-time employees and commuters who frequently use council car parks.

We offer two types of season tickets:

  • season tickets for named car parks - valid for specific car parks. These can be purchased on a monthly, quarterly, 6-monthly, or annual basis. Please note: Baxter Avenue is available as an annual ticket only
  • season tickets for car park zones: These tickets are valid for the designated car parks within a specific car park zone. They can be purchased on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis

Details of the applicable charges can be found on our permit fees and charges page.
