Disabled parking permits

The Disabled Drivers Association (www.ddai.ie) and the Irish Wheelchair Association (www.iwa.ie) issue Disabled Parking Permits.

They grant permits to people with certain disabilities.

A valid and in-date disabled parking permit allows the owner of the permit to park for free, regardless of who is driving them, in public car parking spaces that display the Disabled Driver's Logo.

Permits are issued for a 2-year period.

Please refer to the Disabled Parking Permit Scheme on the web site of the Irish Wheelchair Association.

Resident parking permit

Resident parking permits apply at Ennis, Ennistymon, Kilrush, Lahinch, Miltown Malbay and O'Curry Street in Kilkee.  Resident parking permits will be valid only for the particular car park/on-street parking zone detailed on the permit and no other on-street zone or car park area. Parking in an area not specified on the permit will result in the issue of a parking fine for which there is no appeal system.
