Parking within these areas is often controlled by:
Yellow lines: A single yellow line parallel to the kerb or roadside prohibits parking day and night.
Paycards: Parking on St. Helier streets and in most public car parks is paid for with unit paycard, which can be bought at the Sand Street car park or from any shop or garage that display the paycard symbol.
Parking is chargeable 8am - 5pm Monday to Saturday Inclusive but is free after 5pm - 8am daily and all day Sunday.

Disabled parking: Blue Badge holders can park in one of the special parking places set aside for disabled drivers in St. Helier streets and public car parks around the island. All disabled space parking is free provided your badge is displayed correctly.
