Car park permit

Find out how to apply for a weekly, monthly or annual permit for car parks in Torbay.

Please be aware that parking permits are non-refundable.

New parking charges are set to be introduced in car parks across Torbay from 1 March 2023

For regular car park users we offer a variety of parking permits allowing you to use over 30 car parks across Torbay.

For example, did you know our annual off-peak parking permit works out at just £1.25 a week? This means if you park for more than an hour a week, the permit has paid for itself.

Our standard annual permit works out at £8.46 a week, which is less than the cost of paying for one full day ticket in Zone 1.

For someone using our car parks on a regular basis, there are great savings to be made.
