Resident parking permits in Worthing

Controlled Parking Zones (CPZ)

All residents living within a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) can apply for a parking permit, provided they can prove that their main residence is within the CPZ and they have a vehicle registered where they live. A main residence does not include a bed or makeshift bedroom set up within an office or shop premises. See tables below for prices.

To find out where the CPZs operates in Worthing please check the roadside signs, or use the zone map or plan below:

You will need to provide:

  • proof that you're the registered vehicle keeper and that your vehicle is car, a car derived van or goods vehicle with a private/light goods tax class (such as your V5C log book)

Visitor parking permits

Visitor parking permits are available for residents living within a Controlled Parking Zone (CPZ) to buy from the Parking Shop. Various restrictions apply depending on which zone they are used in. See tables below for prices.

To buy, you will need to provide proof of residency, such as a council tax or utility bill or bank statement dated in the last 3 months.

If you live in a new development

If you live in a new development you may not be able to apply for either a resident permit or visitor permits to park on surrounding roads. You may be able to purchase a non-resident permit, but this will depend on availability.

To find out if your property is affected contact our Parking Services Team on:

Non-resident parking permits

If you work in a CPZ but do not live in the same zone, you can apply for a non-resident parking permit. These are issued for a specified road only, not the entire zone. Please see business parking permits for details.
