Temporary parking suspension
Our permit parking system has recently been updated.
Emails have been sent to all users asking them to log into the new system and set their password. The email was sent from lewisham.permits@nsl.co.uk and is not a scam. If you are unsure, please contact our permits team on 020 8787 5397 or email lewishamparkingpermits@nslservices.co.uk.

You may need to apply for a temporary suspension of parking space on the public highway in certain circumstances, for example for:
- removals
- building works
- road works
- utilities work
- special events
- skip
- filming
- local events
Parking suspensions are indicated on streets by yellow warning boards.
If you need to restrict the use of a location where parking is not normally subject to any restriction, or need to change the use of a location where waiting restrictions apply, you will need to contact the street works team to request a temporary traffic order.
When to apply
Please apply a minimum of five working days before the requested start date of the suspension.
How to apply
In order to submit an online application, you will need:
- street name or postcode of where the suspension is required
- date and times you want to suspend the space for
- a brief description of where the proposed suspension is located such as ‘outside number 7 only’
- vehicle registration numbers of all the vehicles using the suspended spaces
- method of payment of a debit or credit card
If you’re going to place a skip on parking spaces, you will need to apply for a skip licence with a parking suspension. More information and details on how to apply can be found on our skip licence page.
