Parking Options and Permits

Visitor Parking

Visitors may park in the time-limited zones, which are located close to most buildings. ‘Pay & Display’ voucher parking is available for extended visitor parking. The ‘Pay & Display’ parking areas are located off Sullivans Creek Road, Fellows Road (the Law School Carpark), Ward Road (the South Oval Carpark) and Childers Street opposite the School of Music.

If you are visiting the campus on official business, ask your host before you arrive if there are any special parking arrangements in their area — such as official visitor spaces or temporary permits.

Motorcycle Parking

Some areas on campus are specifically set aside for motor cycles. These areas are clearly identified and when motorcyclists park in the designated area, they are not required to display an ANU Parking Permit.

Motorcyclists are entitled to park their motorcycle in a spot designated for use by motor cars. Where they choose to do this, they must park in accordance with the regulations detailed in the ANU Parking Statute and display a current parking permit or ticket valid for the parking area.
