Free One Hour Parking Grace Period in Wiltshire Car Parks for People with Blue Badges


February 2023:

Wiltshire Council has confirmed that it will soon be implementing a grace period to allow Blue Badge holders an extra hour on any parking ticket they purchase in council-run car parks.

The update was announced by Wiltshire Council Leader Councillor Richard Clewer at the Cabinet meeting on 31st January 2023. A date when this measure will be formally introduced will be confirmed in due course, but the council is looking to implement it as soon as possible.

When it is introduced, Blue Badge holders will need to purchase a ticket and display their Blue Badge as usual when parking in Wiltshire Council car parks, and the additional time period will be implemented from when the ticket time has expired.
