Housing permits
Housing parking permits can be applied for by residents living in specific council estates within three of our Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) in West Hendon (WHH), Hendon Central (HCH) and Cricklewood (CH). They allow the holder to park in a Housing Permit Holders Only parking place during the controlled hours on estate grounds.
Permits can only be used where the zone letters on the permit match the zone letters on the signs. Housing permits are not valid in permit parking places on-street which have different identifying letters.
To apply for a housing permit, you need to send us a completed application form, proof of residency, and proof of vehicle ownership. Please send copy documents by post. We do not have a public counter.
A maximum of three permits can be issued for each postal address. Shared accommodation where rooms are rented out are considered to be one address.
The first housing permit is issued free of charge. The annual cost of a second and third permits per household is £35 and £65 respectively.
