District to provide disabled parking bays

The District Council has taken over responsibility for residential
disabled bays from Herts County Council.

This decision was recommended by the Car Parking Working Party,
following discussions and negotiations between the District and County
Council.

Residents who meet the criteria, will be eligible to apply for a parking
bay outside their property. Details of the criteria can be found on the
council’s website www.stalbans.gov.uk or
by emailing: parking@stalbans.gov.uk or ringing the council 01727
819395. The criteria and application form have been reviewed by the
Access Group which has welcomed the initiative.

Moving this responsibility to the district, will bring residents closer
to the decision making process, where reviews of the local needs for
bays will be conducted.

It is anticipated that subject to a site survey, a bay will be made
available within four weeks of an application being received.
