Ashford Town Centre Pedestrian Zone
There is a barrier-controlled pedestrian zone in place in the town centre during the day.
The central pedestrian zone includes the following roads:
- Upper Bank Street
- High Street
- North Street
- Part of Park Street
There is also limited access to the New Rents area between 08:30am and 4:30pm (access to New Street via the entrance on Drum Lane).
Bank Street Barrier
There is a manned barrier on the entrance to the pedestrian zone, on Bank Street (at the junction with Tufton Street).
With very few exceptions, no traffic will be permitted to pass this point once the barrier has been closed.
Access is not given to blue badge holders after the barrier has been closed.
Access is restricted by the barrier at the following times:
- Monday to Friday - 10.30am to 5pm
- Saturday - 8am to 6pm
- Sunday - not restricted
Vehicle Access to Pedestrian Zone
Special permits can be issued to vehicles that require regular access, for example residents and businesses. Due to the nature of the restriction here there are rules relating to what activities might allow us to grant an access permit.
Please contact Parking Services in order to enquire about an access permit. You can either write to us or email permitcustomercare@ashford.gov.uk.
