5. Parking on the Street
Disabled permit holders are entitled to park in any designated disabled parking bay, or anywhere
else that it is legal to park on the street excluding loading bays Mon-Fri and Taxi Bays. By
displaying the disabled parking permit, together with payment by parking voucher(s) or EasyPark
device, the disabled person may park for two hours (must pay for both hours). Persons who
are confined to wheelchairs and who drive to, and work in, the City, thereby requiring all day
parking on the street, may make special application to the City for a designated parking bay on
the street as near to their place of business as possible. Each such application will be considered
on its own merits.
6. Parking in City Car Parks
Disabled permit holders are entitled to park in any designated disabled parking bay or in any
other bay in a City car park and must display the disabled parking permit, together with the
pay-and-display sticker, monthly permit, scratch-off voucher or EasyPark device. The City
extends the courtesy of using scratch-off parking vouchers in the city car parks to Disabled
Parking Permit holders. There are two disabled parking bays on the northwest corner of the
City Hall building, reserved for multi-passenger vans used to transport the disabled. Such vans
must display a disabled parking permit, and a pay-and-display sticker, and may remain in those
bays for a maximum of three hours. Please note that only one visit per day is permitted in all
time-restricted parking lots. All motorists, including Disable Permit holders, must obey the time
limits in the City lots.
7. Fees and Lost Permits
The annual fee for each Disabled Parking Permit, whether Permanent or Temporary, is $25.00. A
replacement fee of $50.00 will be incurred if a permit is lost or stolen. Permit holders are
encouraged to keep their vehicles secure when displaying the permit. Permit numbers of lost
and stolen permits will be recorded with the Bermuda Police Service.
8. Use of Disabled Parking Permit
A disabled parking permit is issued to the disabled person, not to his/her spouse, relative, friend
or caregiver. Some disabled persons can drive themselves; others have to be driven by friends
or relatives. In the latter case, the disabled parking permit may only be used when the disabled
