Gardai have stressed that disabled parking bays are limited in Letterkenny and are strictly only for use of permit-holders
Gardaí from Letterkenny Roads Policing Unit issued a number of Fixed Charge Penalty Notices on Friday of vehicles that were parked in disabled parking bays without having a valid permit displayed.
“We are appealing to all motorists to avoid parking in disabled parking bays unless authorised to do so,” they said. “Disabled parking bays are limited and it is important that they are only used by people who are authorised to stop or park in them. Unfortunately, when the disabled parking bays are all occupied, holders of a valid disabled parking permit often have to abandon their plans and wait until such time when a bay becomes available again for them.
“If you are detected as stopped or parked in a disabled parking bay and you do not hold a valid permit to do so, you will be liable to pay a fixed charge penalty notice of €150.”
