MiPermit Newham – Newham Council

Funeral parking permits

In the event of a bereavement we can arrange for a temporary relaxation of parking enforcement.  

In order to arrange this please email Parking.EnforcementRequests@newham.gov.uk with: 

  • a copy of the death certificate or
  • letter from the funeral directors with the address of where the funeral is taking place or leaving from.

We will arrange for a relaxation of parking restrictions on the day of the funeral at the single and specific road as agreed with those applying for the temporary relaxation. Please note the relaxation agreed will only apply on the day of the funeral and at the agreed location. This relaxation will not apply to vehicles that are parked causing an obstruction or dangerously parked and these vehicles will still be subject to enforcement.
