There is also dedicated motorcycle parking in various car parks.

Parking on street in a pay and display bay

Motorcycles can park in on-street pay and display parking places free of charge and without time limit. However, the council would ask that all motorcycles are parked nose to kerb (herring bone fashion) where possible, to maximise the use of the parking place. Section 136 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 defines a motorcycle as follows:

  • In this Act (except for the purposes of [F1 sections 57 and 63]) "motorcycle" means a mechanically propelled vehicle (not being an invalid carriage) with fewer than 4 wheels, of which the weight un-laden does not exceed 410 kilograms.

If you park a motorcycle in a full car park space you need to purchase a ticket and keep it with you in case you are asked to provide it to the council.

Quad bike parking

  • Quad bikes must park within a bay in a car park and on-street, all time restrictions must be adhered to.
  • A pay and display ticket must be purchased and kept on your person in case you are asked to provide it to the council.

Motorhome parking

Motorhome and high sided vehicle parking

The majority of car parks in Huddersfield have a height barrier at the entrance. In other centres throughout Kirklees, height barriers are not as frequent.

Whilst camping is not allowed in any car park, we do appreciate motorhomes and high sided vehicles are used when visiting Huddersfield.

Weight restrictions still apply. You must always ensure you park entirely within a single bay, otherwise you may receive a parking fine (Penalty Charge Notice).
