    Can anyone tell me if you have a dublin city council parking permit does that mean you can only park on the road that you live on?
    So if its a small road with lots of cars you mightn't get parking?

    It would generally cover an area more than just one street I'd imagine. I know the Dun Laoghaire one will cover all of Dun Laoghaire, the Dalkey one all of Dalkey, but if I go to Dalkey with my Dun Laoghaire permit and not pay, I can expect a fine. You'd be best off ringing the council and finding out what area your permit covers.

    Usually only the road you live on - in some cases eg where you have a bus lane outside your house they allow you to get a disc for a nearby street - the disc doesn't guarantee you a space just allow you to park for free on your street

    So does it cover an area or just the street you live on?

    Just the street you live on, actually the cheap €40 permit is for the street you live on. I think you can buy one for any street but if you don't live on it you pay somewhere in the region of €400.
