Blue Badge Parking in Eastleigh
Blue Badge
Parking
Blue Badge Permits in the Eastleigh Borough area are issued by
Blue Badge Units. They are designed to help make car parking easier
for people who have mobility difficulties.
This leaflet sets out how the Blue Badge Scheme works in the
Borough of Eastleigh. Display of the badge exempts the badge holder
from some waiting restrictions and parking charges.
If badge details (particularly the expiry date) are faded and
cannot be read, the badge should be returned to the appropriate
Blue Badge Unit.
Vehicles should be parked wholly within marked bays and not on
hatched areas adjacent to any bay.
