Residents parking discount scheme

To apply you will first need to set up an online account with the RingGo cashless parking system.

The scheme provides residents of the Royal Borough with one hour of free parking in eight selected council car parks through the RingGo Parking app. 

You can apply for the virtual permits, free-of-charge. 

Unlike current RingGo zones the resident parking discount zones will not operate on a start/stop basis but will “buy time”. 

You will have to decide how long you are going to stay at the time of parking and pay the appropriate amount. 

Remember with buy time you can extend your stay at any time during your live parking session. 

There is no pre-authorisation required.

Who is eligible?

To successfully apply, you must provide proof that you currently live within the Royal Borough, and that you own the vehicle(s) to which you would like the discount to apply.

Permits for motorcycles and vans are also available.

What proof is required?

As part of the online application process for virtual permits, you’ll be asked to upload one of the following documents as proof of residency in the Royal Borough, and one for proof of vehicle ownership.

For residency: 

  • Bank Statement.
  • Council Tax Statement.
  • Driving Licence.
  • Home Insurance.
  • Mortgage Agreement/Statement.
  • Tenancy Agreement.
  • Utility Bill.

For vehicle ownership:

  • Certificate of Insurance.
  • Car Insurance Schedule.
  • Vehicle Registration Document (V5).
  • Rental or Lease Agreement.
  • Letter of Authorisation (if you have a company vehicle) *.

*Company vehicle - you must provide a company letter dated within 28 days of your application to confirm the following:

  • You are an employee/director.
  • You are authorised to drive the vehicle.
  • You keep the vehicle overnight at your address.
  • Vehicle registration number, plus name and position of the person signing the letter.

Where can I park?

Residents can apply for up to two permits with different vehicle registrations per discount area. The discount zones are shown below and provide one hour of free parking per car park per day per vehicle. As there are six discount zones you can apply for a maximum of 12 permits.  The permits are virtual and Residents will not receive a physical permit, our Civil Enforcement Officers will be able to check on their hand held devices whether a permit has been purchased for a discounted session.

Discount car park zones:

Windsor

  • Alexandra Gardens car park
  • Alma Road car park

Please note that Alexandra Gardens CP and Alma Road CP are linked together as one parking discount zone so one application covers both car parks

  • West Street car park

Please note that Grove Road CP and West Street CP are linked together as one parking discount zone so one application covers both car parks

  • Hines Meadow car park
