Hi Irfaan (and colleagues),
Staff who hold a Blue Badge permit park for free.
Here's our Car Parking and Permit Allocation Policy that went through an extensive EIA prior to development: http://www.mmu.ac.uk/staff/travel/car-parking/main-car-park-policy.pdf
The Green Travel Plan Team continued to review the process for a few years and have mainstreamed E&D factors into their system and approach so we know its working and is fair.
We also host a dedicated 'Staff Car Parking' website that provides more information and FAQs: http://www.mmu.ac.uk/staff/travel/car-parking/
I hope that helps.
Good luck!

Dear colleagues,
At UEL, we are reviewing our parking provisions for both staff and students and one of the areas of contention is charging disabled staff for parking. We currently charge staff with a Blue badge for a parking permit just like any other staff member. My question for those that have staff car parks is:
- Do you have a parking permit system and if so does a charge apply to disabled staff too? Or are staff under the blue badge scheme exempt from any charges?
Any advice/info would be welcome on different approaches.
Many thanks
Irfaan
