West Melbourne is growing. With a range of pressures impacting on-street parking including increased traffic, new transport infrastructure, higher-density housing and important greening works, it's crucial that we review parking across West Melbourne to make sure it works now and into the future.

We're working with the community to understand parking needs in West Melbourne for businesses, residents and visitors, which will help us deliver improvements to on-street parking.

We engaged with the West Melbourne community in March and April 2024 and again in March and April 2025 to get feedback and comments on parking. This feedback has been combined with an expert parking report conducted by Urban Transit Solutions, data on parking in the local area, and what we’ve learned from other neighbourhood parking reviews to develop a set of changes that will help make parking simpler and more available in West Melbourne.

Works on the parking changes will begin in May 2025. These changes won't be 'set and forget' - we're committed to checking in with the community annually to make sure parking is working for them and adjusting where needed.
