Parking charges
The new cashless parking and exemption permit charges started on 1 February 2024. All other charges started on 1 April 2024.
The notice of variation for parking charges were advertised in the east London advertiser on 4 January 2024.
How permit charges are calculated
The permit price is worked out by the vehicle’s CO2 emissions, or the engine size for vehicles registered before 1 March 2001.
For a resident permit a surcharge is added to the second and third permit at the property. For all permits a surcharge is added for a diesel vehicle. You can find the vehicle details on the Registration Certificate (logbook) or DVLA website.
The following table is an example of how to calculate a permit price
