Suspension or Dispensation

S278 Suspensions (Developer Only)

For section S278 suspensions please e-mail mkparking@milton-keynes.gov.uk or telephone 01908 252309.

Suspension of bays

When submitting an application for a suspension please supply the exact details of the location required with a map or plan of the area and allow 10 days' notice, the more notice you allow, the higher the chance of the suspension being permitted. We recommend that you allow a minimum of 10 days’ notice; however, it may be possible to accommodate your request with less notice. 

You can apply to have a parking bay(s) temporarily suspended.  This means that it will be coned off exclusively for your use for a designated period.  Signs will also be erected advising other motorists that they cannot park in that bay(s).  If other motorists do park in the bay, we can issue a parking fine.  We will not suspend disabled parking bays unless absolutely necessary. The charge for a suspension of bay(s) is £15 per bay per day.

To apply for a suspension you will need to register for an account and complete the application. For queries please email miltonkeynespermits@imperial.co.uk or call 01604 625608.

Dispensation of Restriction

You can apply for a dispensation of restrictions.  This will allow you to park in a place where you would otherwise not be permitted, e.g. on yellow lines or for longer than allowed in a time limited area. The charge for a dispensation is £15 per day.

There must be a valid reason for the suspension or dispensation, please see the list below.  You cannot have a suspension or dispensation simply to allow you to park to go to work or to park outside your house.  A suspension/dispensation will normally be permitted for:

  • Building, industrial or demolition purposes
  • Maintenance, improvement or reconstruction of the parking place or highway
  • For the removal of furniture
  • For weddings and funerals
  • For special occasions
