Residents’ permits are only valid within the specified zone in which you live, and in resident bays or “shared use” indicated by plates by the side of the bays.
They are not valid on yellow lines, in business only bays, in disabled bays, in pay and display only bays, at meters, in motorcycle bays (unless being displayed by a motorcycle) or in Hounslow Council car parks and not on a yellow line restriction.
They only relate to the vehicle whose registration number is shown on the permit and are not transferable.

If you live in the Twickenham parking zone (Zone R), complete a Zone R application form.
Please fill in all the information requested, sign and date it. Incomplete application forms will be subject to a delay or may be returned.
