Try to avoid driving in bus lanes, otherwise you will be fined £100. Be aware that many places have a time limit for parking. In the city centre, many places require you to pay by phone. I suggest you buy a UK phone card and download the ringgo or parking pay by phone app on your mobile phone, both of which are apps that can be used to pay for parking fees.
