Business permits

Employees of businesses located in central Basingstoke may be eligible to apply for a business permit. This allows the holder to park in business permit designated parking places on-street (roads on the highway), or in designated parking bays off-street (in Basingstoke’s pay and display car parks).

On-street business permits

Permits are available for Chequers Road and the Fairfields area only. Apply for your permit on the Hampshire County Council website.
