Bridgnorth residents' on-street parking scheme

A residents' on-street parking scheme operates in permitted areas of Bridgnorth. Each eligible household is entitled to up to two permits (one where specified) and each permit can have up to two car registrations on it.

A permit won't guarantee you a parking space, nor will it guarantee that you'll be able to park directly in front of your property. All permits must be displayed at all times when using this parking concession, and you may only park in the area specified on the permit.
