Blue Badge holders are able to park free of charge but must display their blue badge at all times.  Please use designated blue badge bays as a priority where these are available.

If a Blue Badge holder is parked in an electric vehicle charging bay they must display their Blue Badge to park for free, but they must pay to charge their vehicle and be plugged in to a PodPoint machine. 

Note: A maximum 5 hour stay is permitted in electric vehicle charging bays.  Users do not need to move their vehicle once it has finished charging, but must move the vehicle to a standard parking bay after the maximum permitted stay of 5 hours if they wish to stay for longer.

Payment can be made using cash, credit or debit card (we do not accept American Express or Diners Club) Apple Pay or Android Pay using the parking machines in the car park.

This is the most convenient payment method and is very easy to use.  Simply set up a 'Pay by Phone' account by visiting their website or downloading the App. Once your account is set up you can manage your parking sessions online via the website or app.
