The University’s Executive Group has confirmed the 2020/21 increase for parking permit charges. These charges will apply from 1 September 2020.

Kent’s parking permit prices remain low compared to other universities and we continue to offer free parking permits for those who have a Government Blue Badge or travel by motorcycle.

For staff, there will now be four tiers of payment in accordance with your salary. The new fourth tier will apply to anyone paid on the professional and management scale who will pay a higher rate (£1.24 a month above the higher rate of the other tiers).

All other permits (except daily permits) will continue to be charged according to staff gross monthly earnings, irrespective of the length of time the permit is valid for.
