A staff car parking permit permits parking in all designated parking areas when they are open (including Riverside) except Car Park A and disabled spaces.

Registered disabled staff users will continue to be able to obtain a free car parking permit which will permit car parking in all designated disabled spaces and other University spaces when no appropriate disabled space is available.

Staff car park permits, other than those relating to Coppertops/off peak, will in future not be issued on an annual basis, although charges will continue to be reviewed annually. Charges will normally be deducted monthly from salary over the 12 month period. The permit application form has been amended to authorise deductions on a continuous basis whilst you remain in employment at the University. You will, of course, be free to cancel this arrangement if you no longer wish to use the car parking facilities. In this event or should you leave the University your permit should be returned to the Finance Office.

Permits for Coppertops will continue to be issued on an annual basis. Payment may be made by a one-off deduction from salary or a maximum of five monthly payments.
