Nightmare trying to park
Free Parking for disabled in Poole town centre is a nightmare. 12 bays under the fly over by the train station. 10 bays behind the Dolphin centre. I did find a futher 6 bays today, if you can't park under the fly over by the train station. As you leave the station, drive up the road turn left not right onto the fly over roundabout and just on the left side there is another 6 bays. The main car park which use to be free to all disabled blue badge holders by the Unemployment centre, unless you have a Poole council permit as well as your blue badge, you have to pay. I have a motorbility car which is tax free & just found out we also have to pay. I called Poole council after asking the traffic warden what to do as ticket machine instructions not clear. To get a Poole council parking permit, you have to send in your PIP or DLA confirmation as well as your motorbility papers with car registration details. Cost £26 per year. If you don't use Poole town centre often then the cost of the permit is not worth it. Cheaper to use the multi storey.
