Resident/Visitor Permit Schemes

The Council have introduced a number of on-street residential permit schemes which are reserved for nearby residential properties.

The schemes allow, 24 hours permit parking and enforcement which is the responsibility of South Wales Police (excluding Caedraw which will be enforced by MTCBC). As a result any vehicles found parked in these locations, without a valid permit can expect to be issued with a fixed penalty notice.

Residents of the streets specified in the scheme can apply for a permit.
