Blue Badge for disabled parking

See where Blue Badge holders can park in Buckinghamshire on the Traffweb site (select 'traffic orders', then use the 'legend' button to tick 'disabled badge holders only').

Blue Badge holders previously had to register to use certain car parks in High Wycombe. You no longer need to register your vehicle to park at:

• Easton Street
• Wycombe Swan
• Handy Cross Park & Ride

See who can get a Blue Badge on the government website.

If you are not automatically entitled to a Blue Badge, you may need an assessment as part of your application.

Our expert assessor, who is a senior physiotherapist, may check social care and health databases to confirm your eligibility.

If you are asked to go to an independent mobility assessment, this will be in either Amersham or Aylesbury.

Your Blue Badge can take up to 12 weeks to arrive.

If you are sending in a paper application, you can include a £10 cheque or postal order with the applicants name clearly printed on the back.

Alternatively, whether you have completed a paper or online application, you can wait until we contact you for payment. If your application is approved, we usually send you a link by email to pay online or ask you to phone us to pay.

If your Blue Badge is lost or stolen, let us know. There is a £10 charge for a replacement Blue Badge.

If you are renewing a Blue Badge, you must return your old Blue Badge to us.

Send your expired Blue Badge to:

Blue Badge Applications, 5th Floor, Walton Street Offices, Walton Street, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire HP20 1UA

If a Blue Badge is no longer needed, you need to return it to us by post.

Send the Blue Badge to:

Blue Badge Applications, 5th Floor, Walton Street Offices, Walton Street, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire HP20 1UA

If your new address is still within Buckinghamshire send in proof of your new address to the team. Documents accepted as proof of address include:

• a Bank or Building Society statement
• a Council Tax bill
• any official HMRC/DWP documentation

You can send copies by email or mail.

If you have moved into Buckinghamshire and have been issued with a Blue Badge from another local authority you can continue to use this but, will need to inform the issuing authority of your change of address. Then apply for a new Blue Badge in the Buckinghamshire area when your badge is due to expire (applications can take up to 12 weeks).

If you are moving out of Buckinghamshire you will have to apply to your new local authority for a new blue badge once your Buckinghamshire issued badge expires.

If we do not think you are eligible for a Blue Badge, we will write to you and explain why.

We will also give you more details on the next stage of the process.

If we reject your application, it does not stop you from making another application in the future.

You can apply again after 6 months if your condition changes, and send us any new evidence you think will help your application.

If you do not agree with our decision, you can request a review by writing to:

The Manager, Blue Badge Team, 5th Floor, Walton Street Offices, Walton Street, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire HP20 1UA

If you are worried because someone is not using a Blue Badge in the right way or is breaking the rules, report abuse of a Blue Badge to us and we will investigate.
