Permission to Park

Find out how to get a permission to park permit, for people who need to park in Islington to carry out building, construction or maintenance work.

If you are carrying out building, construction or maintenance work in Islington, buy a permission to park so that you can park near where you are working.

How it works

Permission to park is an electronic permit linked to your number plate that gives you all-day parking in:

  • resident bays and resident shared-use bays
  • business bays,
  • short stay paid-for bays (such as 'Pay by Phone' or RingGo). 

How to get a permission to park

You'll need:

  • the works vehicle registration
  • address the vehicle will be parked at or near
  • address of the person buying the permit, whether that's you or someone doing it for you. We need this for fraud prevention.

To buy a permission to park, visit the RingGo website where you can register an account and buy a permit for a day, a week or a month.

Please note permission to park is non-refundable.
