On-street disabled parking bays fall into two categories:
1. Parking bays which are marked out in residential areas for the benefit of residents who require a disabled parking bay close to their homes.
The Disabled Persons' Parking Places Act requires all local authorities maintain a Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) which makes disabled bays throughout Fife legally enforceable.
As new bays are requested and existing bays are no longer needed, there is a requirement to regularly update the TRO to ensure it is accurate (TRO Amendments).
Attached in the publications list below is a copy of the live TRO (and Schedules) listing all enforceable bays.
New amendment proposals will also appear in the list below when they are available. These documents contain details relating to all those disabled bays that we plan to make legally enforceable, along with our reasons for doing so and how anyone can go about objecting should they feel that they do not support the proposal. Details are also provided on any we plan to remove from the live TRO.
In addition to the information provided within these documents, a 'live map' has been provided below which will allow you to look at the locations of the disabled bays which are active in Fife.
Note: Any bays shown as "To be removed" (orange symbol) are still legally enforceable until the sign and pole have been taken down.

2. Disabled parking bays which are in locations where people may need to get access to parking close to a local amenity such as shopping areas or community facilities.
Disabled persons parking places are provided throughout Fife to make access easier to town centres, shopping areas, other amenities and to people’s homes. Through the provision of on-street and off-street disabled parking bays at appropriate locations, people with a disability can get improved access to services.
Reporting misuse of bays
If someone is deliberately parking in on-street bays without a blue badge, you can let us know by emailing parking.management@fife.gov.uk.
Removing a disabled bay
If a bay is no longer required, please let us know by emailing disabled.parking@fife.gov.uk. We'll need as much information as possible, including location and, where possible, the person who the bay belongs to.
Please note, we can only deal with bay removal requests; we cannot respond to any other requests.
Repainting a disabled bay
If a bay is now in needing repainted due to wear and tear, you should use the Apply for a Disabled parking bay online form below.
