Motorcycle parking for residents
All permit-only designated motorcycle bays are now provided with
locking ground anchors.
Several insurance companies will consider offering reduced
insurance premiums for motorcyclists that have access to locking
facilities.
There are two types of resident motorcycle permit available:
- Motorcycle only permit
£35; this permit allows residents to park their motorcycle or
scooter in any dedicated permit motorcycle bay in the Royal
Borough
- Combined permit £88;
this permit allows residents to park their motorcycle or scooter in
any dedicated motorcycle permit bay and any resident (car) parking
bay
Alternatively, residents may chose to continue parking their
motorcycle for free in the visitor motorcycle parking
bays.
We will issue only one motorcycle permit per person. A
discount of £15 is available on both permits where there is
evidence of an approved rider training course. For approved
training courses please see the following list:
Pending the implementation of the new permit fees on 1 April,
existing motorcycle permits have been upgraded to a ‘combined
permit’ until their expiry date, allowing residents to take
advantage of the new secure lockable bays or continue to park their
motorcycles alongside cars in the resident’s parking bays.
Residents and those who work in the borough can take advantage
of a FREE Bikesafe motorcycle skills day by contacting road.safety@rbkc.gov.uk before
booking. For more detailed information on the course go to http://www.bikesafe-london.co.uk/
Successfully completing the course will entitle you to access the
reduced price motorcycle permit scheme.

use.
