Hi, Diddle you can park there for 3hrs. Set the clock your badgeto the time you arrive and as long as your back in 3hs you'll be fine. xx

You can also park on single yellow lines as long as your blue badge is being displayed.

Hi Diddle when you applied for your blue badge you should have received a sheet with all of the info you will need to know about where you can use your blue badge.

I am sure if you go to thedirect.gov site you should find more info on there.

Hope this helps you :)

Just make sure you leabe your blue badge with your photo underneath, it's not valid if you leave it the wrong way up !!
