Parking for disabled people and the Blue Badge scheme
How and where to park as a disabled person in Islington including applying for and renewing a Blue Badge, free resident permits and what to do if your Blue Badge is lost or stolen.
Dedicated parking bays for Blue Badge holders
You may be able to apply for your own disabled parking bay if:
- there is no other parking within a reasonable walking distance of your home or workplace
- you are a Blue Badge holder and you can't walk more than 20 metres (you may need a medical assessment first).
If your application is successful, it can take up to six months to install a bay. This is because we must consult local people first. After that, there are a number of legal documents for us to draw up and complete before we can install the bay.
