On-street parking options

In addition, disability parking permit holders are able to park on-street within any signed ‘2P event parking’ space for a total of 4 hours (double the 2 hours) when the event parking controls apply. It is important to note that the times indicated in designated disabled parking spaces do not permit additional time and permit holders are only entitled to the time specified on the sign.
The above concession/parking arrangements are only valid when the vehicle is being used to transport the disability parking permit holder. A valid disabled parking permit must be displayed so the number and expiry date are clearly visible from the exterior of the vehicle.
