The Residents’ Parking Zones (RPZ), were designed to provide preferential parking for residents in their neighbourhoods that the zone encompasses.
Only a limited number of permits are issued in order to balance the requirements of permit spaces for residents with pay-card spaces for visitors.
There are four main parking zones within St Helier are:
St Mark’s
The Zone includes the St Helier sections of Stopford Road and St Mark’s Road, together with Gas Place, Apsley Road, Chevalier Road, Common Lane, Oxford Road, Janvrin Road (part), Byron Road, Byron Lane, St Mark’s Lane and part of the eastern side of David Place.
Cheapside Zone
Extending from the Esplanade (part) in the south to Roussel Street in the north, and from Kensington Place/Elizabeth Place/Rouge Bouillon (part) in the east to parts of St Aubin’s and New St John’s Roads in the west. This zone also encompasses the lower ends of Westmount Road and Old St John’s Roads.
St Thomas’ Zone
This zone covers a large area linking the St Mark’s Zone in the east, to the Cheapside Zone in the west. This extends from part of Rouge Bouillon in the north to Vauxhall Street, Devonshire Place and The Parade in the south.
Richmond Road Zone
A small local scheme including Richmond Road and part of the north side of La Pouquelaye between its junctions with each end of Richmond Road.
A map of St Helier is available which shows the zones along with reference locations.
Potential New Zones
The Parish have identified two possible areas for a scheme.
They are:
- Havre des Pas Zone, bounded by Havre des Pas (part) in the south, Hastings Road in the north, St Clement’s Road (part) in the east and Marett Road and part of Roseville Street in the west.
- St Andrew’s Zone which is centred on First Tower Park and includes Rue de Trachy, Seafield Avenue, Hansford Lane and parts of La Route de St Aubin and Mont Cochon.
There is currently no plans to install either of these zones at the time of publishing.
If there is enough demand, through letters and contact made with the parish, then a feasibility study will be undertaken before potentially implementing a zone.
Resident Permits
If you live within a Residents’ Parking Zone, have a Jersey-registered vehicle, and you do not have off-street parking at the premises, you may be eligible for a Residents permit. It is worth noting that a resident may not hold more than one permit at the same time.
Business Permits
If you are the owner of a business that operates from an address within a zone and have a Jersey-registered vehicle, which is used in Jersey exclusively for the purposes of the business, you may be eligible for a Business permit.
Temporary Permits
These permits are available for contractors employed to carry out works within the Zones at a cost of £5 (+ GST) per day. Applications for temporary permits should be made to Customer Services at the Town Hall, together with details of the vehicle prior to work commencing. These are available for duration of up to two weeks. If you require longer, then please contact the Streets Coordinator to discuss your needs further, using the details below.
