Parking Permits, Payments and Contracts in Cheshire
East
Car Parking
For more information about general car parking charges please
see the car parks town by town
section.
Residents Parking Permits
There are currently two Resident Parking Schemes in operation,
an off street scheme and an on street scheme. The Off Street
scheme operates in Macclesfield and Knutsford and offers a yearly
permit to park on a pay and display car park if your residence
falls within a defined zone (see attached list of qualifying
addresses). The On Street scheme has been introduced as in many
areas it is difficult for residents to park due to long term
parking by commuters, shoppers and visitors.
The purpose of the on street scheme is to stop this and allow
the spaces to by used mainly for the benefit of residents. Please
see the location of resident parking permit
schemes for further information on current and proposed
schemes. Any scheme will always be introduced with full
consultation of all the relevant people including residents and
local businesses.
Contract Parking Permits
Contract permits are available on a number of pay and display car parks across the Borough.
If you use the car park every day you
will make a significant saving if your purchase a quarterly/annual
permit. For more information on the car parks where a contract
permit can be used and the terms of the service check out the
contract parking permits page.
Parking Dispensation
A Parking Dispensation is a granted right to park vehicle(s)
where they would not normally be able to park or
for longer than the permitted time. Find out more on the parking dispensation page.
Lorry Parking
Cheshire East Borough Council operate a lorry parking
facility at Shaw Heath Lorry Park, Mobberley Road, Knutsford (see
the
location of the lorry park on our interactive map).
The annual cost for this facility is £646.00. A £30.00
deposit is required for the issue of a secure entrance key,
which will be refunded on termination of the contract and
return of the key to Cheshire East Borough Council.
