Carlton is growing. With a range of pressures impacting on-street parking including increased traffic, higher-density housing and the new Metro Tunnel Parkville Station opening soon, it's crucial that we review parking across Carlton to make sure it works now and into the future.

That’s why we’re working with the Carlton community to understand parking needs for businesses, residents and visitors to help us deliver improvements to on-street parking.

These changes won't be 'set and forget' - we will check in with the community annually to review the performance of the parking conditions and fine-tune them where necessary. Through this process, parking conditions may evolve over several years.

We have undertaken similar neighbourhood parking reviews in the CBD, Kensington, Southbank and West Melbourne.

Have your say

Following the recent changes to on-street parking in Carlton, which rolled out from May 2024, we’re checking in with the community to hear your early feedback. Register now to attend one of our online community check-ins or tell us what you think about parking via our always on survey.
