Bay Suspensions for all On & Off Street Bays

(inclusive of Pay & Display, Resident and Limited wait bays), if the bays are not marked out individually then this will be calculated by the length of an average bay and charged for accordingly. 

The purpose of a bay suspension is to secure the vacant possession of one or more parking spaces in a road or car park for works, events and house removal vehicles. We can only provide this service along sections of road with formal parking restrictions along them (e.g. where there is limited waiting, resident’s parking or pay and display parking).

  • £125 per suspension (set-up cost), plus £25 per bay, per day, plus VAT if required in a car park.
  • For all Pay & Display Spaces an additional commercial rate of £5.00 per day will be levied.
  • No refunds for cancellations of works will be given, under any circumstances.
