Estate parking

Parking on estates

You must display a valid estate parking permit when parked on a council estate.

NSL enforce the parking rules on council estates. They will issue a ticket if a vehicle does not display a valid estate parking permit or causes an obstruction.

Penalty Charge Notices (PCN)

How much is a penalty charge notice?

A parking ticket carries a fine of £100. You have 28 days to pay. The charge becomes £60 if you pay within 14 days of the date of issue.

Estate parking permits

We give you an ‘estate parking’ and ‘any vehicle’ permit when you rent a car space. Each permit is valid for one year. Each permit is valid only on a council estate.

Using an 'estate parking' or 'any vehicle' permit

You cannot use an ‘estate parking’ or ‘any vehicle’ permit:

  • to park on the street
  • to park on other private land
  • both at the same time (within the area specified on your estate parking permit)

Visitor parking

Please note, visitor’s vouchers obtained from Tower Hamlets Council are NOT valid on council estates, as per the terms and conditions. If you would like to park in a visitors bay, you can use the bay for up to 6 hours. After this period you must move your vehicle otherwise it will be subject to enforcement action.

Disabled parking

On some of our estates, we have parking spaces for disabled residents.

Bays for disabled parking are usually marked. They will show as disabled or display the international wheelchair symbol. You must display a valid blue badge when parked in a disabled bay. If a valid blue badge is not displayed, NSL issue a parking ticket.
