Motorcycle & moped parking in Ealing
Is motorcycle parking free in Ealing?
Yes — free in motorcycle and resident bays; stop-and-shop excluded, for petrol and electric motorcycles and mopeds alike. A moped parks in the same solo motorcycle bay as a motorbike and pays the same. Free in the borough's motorcycle bays and in any resident bay. Two carve-outs named by the council: "stop and shop" bays and "free bays". It says nothing at all about pay-and-display, so do not assume that is free.
Checked against Ealing council’s own parking page in August 2026. Councils change these schemes, so the sign at the bay always wins.
What the sign at each bay means
- Solo motorcycle bay
- Free — 13 on-street bays plus bays in 8 car parks
- Resident permit bay
- Free in any resident parking bay in the borough
- Pay-and-display bay
- Not addressed — "stop and shop" and "free bays" are excluded by name
- Resident / season permit
- Not needed
