Permits can be issued for vehicles that need to park within controlled parking areas while they work at specific addresses. They are mainly used by shop fitters, builders and similar trades.
You also need this for scaffold and skips that occupy pay and display parking bays in a controlled parking area. Please note: To erect scaffold or place a skip on a highway, you need a skip licence or scaffolding licence. This is in addition to suspended bay permit.
