Waverley Council provides secure parking for residents

26 May 2020

Waverley Council is increasing access to secure overnight parking for Waverley residents with the introduction this month of a new residents’ parking pass for the Hollywood Avenue Car Park, Bondi Junction.

Residents can now apply for the $140 non-transferrable monthly pass. The discounted fee provides access to unreserved secure parking in the car park between the hours of 5pm and 9am each day.

Mayor of Waverley, Paula Masselos, said the initiative fulfils one of the key aims of the Council’s Waverley’s People, Movement and Places Strategy which identifies the need to provide additional off-street parking for residents and to make existing off-street parking more accessible.

“This is a great way to utilise the parking spaces that the Council provides and will help fill a gap for residents who don’t have access to private off-street parking,” Mayor Masselos said.

"We know that on-street parking is in high demand across our LGA due to the sheer number of people who live, work and visit our area. By providing access to off-street overnight parking, we are also helping free-up parking for residents in surrounding streets.”

The current full rate of a monthly parking pass at Hollywood Avenue Car Park is $280 per month. Council recently endorsed the creation of the new non-transferable monthly pass to include a reduced rate for Waverley residents.

“This initiative is just one of the many ways the Council has made access to parking in Waverley fairer for all including the removal in 2018 of the fee for the first residential parking permit and the introduction of around 27 free 15-minute ‘drop-in’ zones in commercial areas throughout Waverley.”
