Green zones are marked with a green sign and you can only park for the allocated time on the sign. If a green sign has a "ticket" restriction you will need to pay and display a ticket or pay using the EasyPark app if applicable.

Council is committed to improving safety on our roads and access to parking for all community members. You can avoid parking fines by understanding and following basic parking rules and observing parking signs.

In accordance with Road Rule 318 of the Road Safety Road Rules 2017, if parking signs state days of the week then parking and time restrictions on the signs do not apply on Public holidays. If parking signs do not state days of the week or if the signs specifically state that restrictions apply on Public holidays then time restrictions do apply on Public holidays.

Drivers must take responsibility for parking safely at all times, especially around schools. Always obey parking signs – they are there to protect our children.

Council is working with local school communities and police to reduce the risks of dangerous parking around schools. You can do your bit and avoid double parking or stopping illegally.

Multi bay pay meters are conveniently located and operate between the hours of 8am-6pm. Parking is free outside of these times. The applicable fee is displayed on the instruction plate on the machine.

If you double park or stop in a No Stopping zone near a school, even if it is just for a second, you are endangering lives. A moment’s convenience is not worth threatening the safety of children.

Driveways also need to remain clear at all times for access requirements, turning manoeuvres and emergency vehicle access.

The time limit for the meters is either 1 or 2 hours. You risk receiving an infringement if you stay longer than the time limit.

Taxi Zones are reserved for exclusive use by taxis. Some Taxi Zones are available for use by other vehicles at specific times printed on the sign.

Line marking parking bays can be used to mark out exactly the extent of where a vehicle can park. Council will consider this type of line marking within high demand areas such as:

If you notice an abandoned or unregistered vehicle parked on-street for longer than six months, please report it using our our online Customer Request Management system.

It is counterproductive for Council to implement parking bays within local and residential streets. Marked parking bays are not the correct answer to increasing the efficient use of on street parking. As per Australian Standard AS 2890.5-1993, formalised bays must be 6 m long to accommodate all vehicle types that use it. Because of this liberal allowance, it is more efficient if on street parking were managed by the road users, especially if small cars (4.30m) and sedans (4.50m) are present.

Clearways are zones used at peak travel times to improve traffic flow. Clearway signs specify the times when you must not park in that zone.

Below you will find examples of what parking signage can look like and a description outlining the relevant parking rules.

Only goods-carrying vehicles, signed courier or delivery vehicles, trucks that are picking up or delivering goods, and taxis that are dropping off or picking up passengers or goods can legally park in these spots.

We acknowledge that we are on the traditional lands of the Kulin Nation. We offer our respect to the Elders of these traditional lands, and through them to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples past, present and emerging.

A sufficient road width of 3 metres can be achieved by limiting parking to one side of the street. Not providing 3.0m of road space, whether it be parking opposite another car or other side of the road is illegal.
