                    The City of Melbourne's transport plans and projects acknowledge the city's expected growth, and the link between how easily people can get into and around the city and the city’s economy.
                    Simpler parking in the city

                    Good parking management helps keep our city moving – and our plan to make parking simpler and fairer will unlock hundreds more spaces, provide free 15-minute parking and introduce cheaper rates for off-peak times.

                    The Parking and Kerbside Management Plan has been informed by the experience of around 1,000 road users and received strong support from the community and businesses – who told us they look forward to an improved parking experience in the CBD.

                    The final Parking and Kerbside Management Plan will be considered by Council at the 16 May Future Melbourne Committee meeting. See the final plan.
