Disabled parking

Car Parks

Blue Badge Holders may register with Woking Borough Council so that their vehicle registration number is recorded and will be recognised by the automatic number plate recognition system installed within the car park barriers.  This will permit entry and exit to the car park without the need to draw a ticket at the barrier or use the "pay on foot" paystations.

 In addition, all Blue Badge holders who register will be issued with a proximity card, which will allow them to enter and exit the car park barriers if they are travelling in a different car or the recognition system is not in operation.

Blue Badge holders who do not live in the Borough will also be able to register, but will be required to pay a charge.  The charge for the initial application will be £50 per year or part thereof, up until the expiry date of the current Blue Badge, and then an annual charge of £50 thereafter.

Blue Badge holders will need to complete an application form to register for their season ticket and, if they are a resident of the Borough provide proof of this (such as a recent utility bill) to obtain the season ticket for free.  An application form can be picked up from the Civic Offices and from the Car Park Control Office which is located in the drop-off area of the Shopper's car park.
