The program is regulated by Manitoba Infrastructure and administered by Manitoba Possible. The Program ensures that when a person has difficulty walking more than 50 meters they can park in one of the specially designated parking spots in lots across the province.
Anyone who needs the full-time assistance of a mobility aid such as a wheelchair, walker, cane, or crutches is eligible for a Parking Permit. Temporary Permits are also available to allow you to use designated spaces during your recovery period (as certified by your health care professional).
People are eligible for the Permit even if they don't own a vehicle. The numbered Permit can be hung in the rear view mirror of any car as long as the registered Permit holder is also in the car.
You can pick up an application for a Parking Permit at any Manitoba Possible regional office throughout Manitoba, at your doctor's office, Manitoba Public Insurance Service Centre or your local municipal office.
You can also print your own application. Simply click on one of the PDF links below to open an application document. Print it out, fill it in and forward the completed form to Parking Permit Program Office 1857 Notre Dame Avenue, Winnipeg MB, R3E 3E7
