Is motorcycle parking free in Barnet?
Yes — free, for petrol and electric motorcycles and mopeds alike. A moped parks in the same solo motorcycle bay as a motorbike and pays the same. Barnet lets a solo motorcycle use paid parking places and permit parking places free and without a permit — one of the simplest regimes in London, though the whole claim rests on a single sentence and a 2024 charges consultation whose outcome the council never published.
Checked against Barnet council’s own parking page in August 2026. Councils change these schemes, so the sign at the bay always wins.
