Parking

We aim to improve traffic flow in Leicester and make the city safer for all by encouraging people to park legally and through the enforcement of parking regulations. 

Please note that in Leicester normal parking charges apply on Bank Holidays, Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

You can now pay a parking fine (or penalty charge) online via our payments service.
