Advisory Disabled Persons Parking Place

Disabled parking spaces for residents are known as ADPPPs. This stands for Advisory Disabled Persons Parking Place, and are marked out on the road with white paint outside your residence.
 
ADPPP road markings are advisory only and rely on the goodwill of other vehicle drivers to operate. There is no action that the City Council or Police can take to prevent anyone from parking within the ADPPP marking. The Police should, therefore, not be contacted. However, in many locations in Leicester, the markings have proved to be reasonably successful.

There are a few requirements that you must meet in order to get an ADPPP. These include that:
  • you must be a blue badge holder.
  • there must be a suitable location which does not infringe upon existing waiting restriction road markings.
  • your property should not have off-street parking.

To find out more about applying for an ADPPP or other road markings, please get in touch.
