There are numerous benefits to using a digital permit system. These include:

• Reducing the impact we have on the environment by not issuing paper permits and plastic permit holders
• Added convenience for customers being able to manage parking, at any time, rather than having to visit the Town Hall and wait for physical permits to be produced and posted

The scheme is monitored and if necessary expanded to include other roads. If you feel your road should be included in the parking scheme, email parking@westsussex.gov.uk.

Each road within the scheme is marked with bays reserved for permit holders at certain times of the day. Outside these times, anyone can park there.

Permit holders can park within the bays anywhere in that zone, not just their own street. It will not be possible to guarantee anyone a permanent space outside their home.

Each vehicle parked on the road during the controlled hours must display a valid permit.

If you make use of more than one vehicle but only ever park one at a time (for example, company cars) a shared permit can be applied for. The registration must always be changed to the vehicle parked in the controlled parking zone during the prescribed hours.

See the list of current charges for all permits.
