Blue Badge nil tax disc holders in Cornwall

Blue Badge nil tax disc holders in Cornwall need to take action in order that they can continue to park in Cornwall Council’s car parks free of charge. This is due to changes coming in on 1 October that will mean people will not be issued with tax discs.

If your tax disc runs out at the end of September please contact the Council urgently to give them your vehicle registration details so they can continue to ensure that you receive your entitlement to free parking in Cornwall Council run car parks.

If your tax disc is due to run out later in the year or in 2015 please contact the Council about two weeks before it expires to give your vehicle details.

Please remember that only Blue Badge holders who pay no road tax are entitled to free parking in Cornwall Council run car parks. All other Blue Badge holders must pay to park but are entitled to one hour’s additional parking free.

So, 2 weeks before your tax disc is up for renewal contact the Council’s Parking Service to give details of your vehicle’s make and model and its  registration number. This can be done either by e-mailing parkingservices@cornwall.gov.uk or by post to Parking Services, PO Box 664, TR1 9DH.

The Council’s Parking Enforcement Officers will then be able to recognise vehicles eligible for free parking using their hand held computers.
