To read the terms and conditions
You will need to confirm you have read the terms and conditions.
Set up an AT Park account
Log in to MyAT or create a MyAT account if you don’t have one already.
1. Click on ‘AT Park’
2. Click on ‘Parking permits’
3. Click the button to register for AT Park
4. Complete the AT Park registration form
You will need a credit or debit card. Payments will only be taken from your card when you buy coupons.
Log in to your parking account
Access your AT Park account through MyAT.
You can save your application at any time and log in later to finish it.
Select your coupon type
From the left-hand menu, choose one of:
- Business
- Resident
- Schools and community groups
From the drop down menu select the coupon book for your zone.
Complete the application form
You will need to enter credit or debit card details. Payment is only taken from your card when you pay for coupons.
After you’ve submitted your application
If you apply on or after the renewal date for your zone, the application process takes up to 10 working days. It may take longer if your application is incomplete and we need more information.
There are 2 steps in the process.
- Approved - Your application is 'approved' when we have the information we need but the payment has not yet gone through.
- Granted - When payment has gone through we will email you to say your permit has been granted.
Note: You must activate your coupons before you can park in a resident parking zone.
When you can start using your parking coupons
Once your coupons are showing as 'granted' in AT Park you can activate them for a specific date. Do this before you park in a residential parking area or you may get a fine.
Adding a co-holder to the existing coupon book
Each property within a Residential Parking Zone is entitled to an allocation of 50 free coupons per cycle year. The 50 free coupons are given to the first application received from that address. We have already granted the 50 free coupons to the property you have applied for.
As per our policy, each property is entitled to the coupons, rather than each individual.
We will only issue one allocation of 50 free coupons, per cycle year, to each household, in line with our Residential Parking Zone policy.
If there are multiple people living in the property who need access to the coupons, they can be added on as a co-holder to the existing granted coupon book. This will give them access to activate the coupons for the dates and license plate required. To access these, please log in to your MyAT parking permits account.
Payment for the paid coupons will still come from the card uploaded in the AT Park account of the resident activating the coupon.
How we check coupons
Parking officers use licence plate recognition technology to check if a vehicle has a coupon to park in your zone.
