Overview

Residents Parking Schemes are introduced in areas where there is a problem with non-residents parking on residential streets and this situation is so acute that homeowners have problems parking their vehicle within a reasonable proximity to their properties. Such schemes limit parking to residents and their visitors by the use of a permit (either physical or digital).

The Lancashire County Council Residents Parking Scheme policy has been introduced to provide a consistent and considered approach to requests for new schemes.   There will be a limited budget for such work and therefore we need to ensure that the work is completed efficiently and measured against the criteria.

It is important to note that any proposed scheme which fails to meet the minimum criteria will not be taken forward.
