Blue Badge holders - parking survey
Blue Badge holder parking charges vary depending on where you live or park within the Dorset Council area.
At the moment Blue Badge holders have to pay for parking in some areas but not in others if they receive certain benefit allowances.
Our objective is to have one parking offer for Blue Badge holders across the Dorset Council area that is easy to understand and consistent.
View the full details of the existing offer.
The purpose of a Blue Badge is to give assistance to those that have mobility issues and need to park closer to their destination. More details about the Blue Badge scheme can be found on the Government's Blue Badge webpage.
