Why we’re doing this

The parking restrictions in Maddox Street, Bourke Road, Collins Street and Doody Street consist of a mix of 1P, 1/4P, EV Parking, Loading Zones, Bus Zones and unrestricted parking.

Maddox Street, Bourke Road, Collins Street and Doody Street are in commercial areas that support various businesses. Currently, there is a high demand for parking in these streets with unrestricted parking in most of the kerbside parking spaces. This allows drivers to park for unlimited duration, decreasing parking turnover and making it difficult for other short-term visitors to find parking spaces nearby.

To improve parking turnover and improve parking opportunities for visitors, it is proposed that the existing unrestricted parking spaces in these streets to be allocated to 2P Ticket 8am-6pm Mon-Fri 4P Ticket 6pm-10pm Mon-Fri 8am-10pm Sun & Public Holidays.
