Car Parking

We manage and maintain public car parks in all of the Borough's main towns, and also in the Hope Valley. We also manage on-street car parking schemes in Castleton and Buxton on behalf of Derbyshire County Council. There are also several other car parks in the Borough not operated by us.

The majority of the 26 car parks are pay and display car parks. There are 120 disabled parking spaces.

All tickets purchased at any High Peak Borough Council car park are transferable between all High Peak Borough Council car parks. Please note that this does not apply to other car parks in the Borough operated by other organisations.

The charges for each pay and display car park are published on the ticket machines.
