Thousands of Blue Badge holders in Scotland may be unaware of the additional benefits attached to the parking permit.
More than 235,700 Blue Badge holders in Scotland may not be aware of a little-known travel boost the permit can unlock. People with a disability living in Scotland may be entitled to free bus travel with the National Entitlement Card.
Guidance on the Transport Scotland website states that you just need your Blue Badge, or your latest V11 vehicle licensing reminder from DVLA or DLA404 from the Department for Work and Pensions , when you apply for the National Entitlement Card. It also advises: “A valid Blue Badge issued outside Scotland, in the rest of the UK or by the authorities of another EU member state will be acceptable.”If you do not have a Blue Badge, full guidance on eligibility can be found on MyGov.Scot here.
Blue Badge eligibility If you have a physical disability or health condition that affects your walking ability, or have a hidden illness such as dementia, autism or Parkinson's, you may be able to get a Blue Badge to help you park closer to the places you want to go.
