Applied for blue badge exemption.
After the time of 14 days approximately I phoned today 03/06/26 to enquire of progress.
I spoke to staff member David who looked into my account and informed me that it would be approved this morning and I would receive an email confirming approval. True to his word, very polite and a pleasure discussing the process.
Happy days 😊

Renewal of our Disability Exemption

Renewal of our Disability Exemption was very straight forward and quick, if you remember to renew before the exemption runs out. Many thanks to all at TT2.
