You can get an estate parking permit from your local Customer Services Centre. The permit is free of charge but you must provide proof of residency, current tax and your vehicle registration certificate (V5C).

Important: An estate controlled parking permit is NOT valid in a controlled parking zone. It is only valid on the estate for which it is issued. You cannot transfer a permit from one vehicle to another and it does not guarantee a parking place.

Estate Controlled Parking Schemes operate at flexible times. Check the signs at the entrances of estates with an Estate Controlled Parking Scheme. There are separate restrictions for some estates near White Hart Lane when Tottenham Hotspur Football Stadium is being used for mid-wek events.

If you live on an estate with an estate controlled parking scheme, you can buy visitor parking permits. There are three types:

• short-stay visitor parking permits (one or two-hour scratch cards)
• weekend visitor parking permits or
• two-week visitor parking permits.

Note that a visitor parking permit for an estate with an Estate Controlled Parking Scheme does not guarantee a parking place and only allows parking on approved areas on the estate.
