How and where to use your badge
With a blue badge you can:
- Park free of charge and without time limit at any on-street pay and display parking bay or designated on-street accessible bay. You must display your Blue Badge and Blue Parking Clock.
- City Centre disabled parking bays - Blue Badge holders can park at the City Centre dedicated disabled parking bay. See where disabled parking bays are in Manchester
The badge can only be used where the holder is a passenger to or from the parking location.
You can also use your blue badge throughout the European Union, although the terms may vary between countries. Check EU Blue Badge rules before you go.
If you move out of Manchester you can still use the badge until it expires. When your badge needs renewing you should contact your new council.
You should not hold more than one blue badge at a time or share your blue badge.
