Residents' parking schemes in Suffolk

Resident parking schemes are intended to manage on-street parking to ensure that residents have a reasonable chance of parking in the vicinity of their homes. No scheme guarantees a parking space. The schemes are introduced where there is severe competition for on-street parking in residential areas from non-residents such as commuters or non-local shoppers. Areas typically have limited off-street parking.

Residents can purchase a yearly permit which must be displayed in the vehicle when parked in designated residents' parking bays.
