Title: Parking
Post by: golden on February 24, 2012, 12:59:54 pm

Anyone recommend any parking spots?

If so do I need to present my student card/book the spots or is it more of a public car park?

If you're going to be there the whole day, you could park in the old Royal Women's Hospital car park on Cardigan Street.  It's a big brick building and if you just have a backpack the guy there will give you a student rate of $9 the whole day.

I normally park at the Eastern Precinct Car Park for $7 a day, and it's connected to the uni via the bridge to Physics building.

I park at EP carpark too.  I did today!  And the man didn't open the gate the first time I asked!  I couldn't function when I had to redial by pressing the button.

Go to the parking office and get your card activated to open the boom gates at the car park.
Also, they are increasing the rate to $10 a day soon (and $5 for four hours).

I'm annoyed that we can't buy permits. :(

SO I READ, starting first of March right?  I probably won't drive in much this semester because my days start at 9 and the traffic would be unbearable.  Maybe my later day...
