## Car parking at the University

#### Do you have a [blue badge](https://www.gov.uk/apply-blue-badge)?

If the answer is yes, then we will issue you with a car parking permit free of charge so that you can park close to your study area.

To arrange this, please contact the [Permit Office](http://www.estates.manchester.ac.uk/services/operationalservices/carparking/disabledparking/). You’ll need to supply a photocopy of your blue badge.

#### No blue badge?

If you don’t have a blue badge, but have difficulties related to your disability that make parking difficult, or you have a long term medical condition that means it is difficult for you to walk long distances, please [book a Quick Query appointment](https://www.dass.manchester.ac.uk/contact-and-see-us/see-us/).

The Disability Advisory and Support Service can then assess if a parking space can be provided at a reduced fee.

#### Applying for a blue badge?

If you are in the middle of applying for a blue badge, the [Permit Office](http://www.estates.manchester.ac.uk/services/operationalservices/carparking/disabledparking/) may offer you a short term permit, and can reimburse costs once you have a blue badge of your own.

#### I’m a Blue Badge holder- how do I get access to University car parks?

- [Contact the Car Parking Office](http://www.estates.manchester.ac.uk/services/operationalservices/carparking/disabledparking/)
- Make sure you take a photocopy of your Blue Badge
