Easter service changes

During the Easter period, some of our services will be operating slightly different hours. Our council’s bin collection schedule will change for one week starting on Friday 29 March to make sure everyone’s waste is picked up around the bank holiday.

See the full schedule and your amended rubbish and recycling collection dates and other service changes including parking and library opening times over the Easter period.

Buy or renew a residents parking permit

How Islington residents can buy a permit to park near their home.

Where you can park with a resident parking permit

A resident parking permit lets you park one vehicle you own:

  • in any resident permit holder bay or any resident shared-use bay (no other bays) in the controlled parking zone (CPZ) you are registered for
  • during both restricted and unrestricted hours, including on Emirates Stadium match days.

You can also park in any other resident permit holder or resident shared-use bay in the borough between 11am and 3pm, Monday to Friday under the Resident Roamer rules, except on Emirates Stadium match days when extra controls are active in a CPZ.

Motorcycle resident permit

A motorcycle resident permit lets you park in any on-street motorcycle bay in Islington for free.

About MA and MD (match day controls)

When choosing your controlled zone while buying permits or visitor vouchers, you may be asked to choose MA or MD zones. You can choose either MA or MD for your area and this will not affect your permit or vouchers.
