Priority Parking Area

Priority Parking Area Restrictions

Edinburgh Council’s Priority Parking Areas designate certain marked sections of road as parking ‘bays’ where parking is restricted to only those with authorised permits during the times specified.

Parking without a permit between 1.30pm and 3.00pm will not be permitted and may incur a fixed penalty fine.

At all other times, and in other areas of the road not marked and designated, parking is still free.
