Charnwood Borough Council

Residents Parking Schemes are designed to help residents park close to their homes or premises, while deterring vehicles from outside the area from parking and causing congestion. These schemes do not reserve places exclusively for each permit holder, but permit holders can park in any of the streets within their designated scheme area (zone) in the resident parking bays provided.

Leicestershire County Council is responsible for the implementation of all Residents Parking Schemes in Leicestershire.

Charnwood Borough Council administer the Schemes in the Loughborough town centre area on behalf of Leicestershire County Council. We issue Parking Permits and Visitors Books on receipt of correct documentation and fees but are unable to comment on policy matters or enforcement issues (such as Penalty Charge Notices / parking fines).

For further details of where the Residents Parking Schemes are and how they operate please see our Frequently Asked Questions Page , which also includes the Application Forms.

For details regarding the enforcement of parking restrictions please see Leicestershire County Council's Parking Matters page

For details regarding the Disabled Persons' Parking (Blue Badge) scheme, including how to apply, please see Leicestershire County Council's Blue Badge page.

PLEASE NOTE: Parking restrictions remain in force 365 days a year, including Bank Holidays, unless the adjacent parking signage states otherwise. Please always check the parking signage and road markings at the location where you wish to park before parking there.
