How to apply for or renew a resident parking permit to park near your home in Islington, as well as costs, where you can park and who can apply.
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 (a bay that can also be used by drivers paying for a short time) in the controlled parking zone (CPZ) you are registered for
- at any time, 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 only 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 also lets you park in any on-street motorcycle bay in Islington for free.
About match and event day permits (MA and MD)
When choosing your CPZ while buying permits or visitor vouchers, you may be asked to choose MA or MD zones.
- MA: For resident parking during match days.
- MD: If you live on a road that has restricted access during match days, you will also get a pass that allows you access.
Free permit only for match and event days
You can apply for a free permit that only works during match day control hours if:
- you only need a permit to park in your CPZ for match and event day and not at any other time
- you live in a CPZ where match day controls apply on match and event days
You have to sign in to or register for a parking account. You will only have the option to apply if you are in a CPZ with match day controls.
