Consultation has concluded.

Have your say on Timed Motorcycle Parking Trials in Hindmarsh Square and Kintore Avenue from 7 January 2019.

Update

The timed motorcycle trials in Hindmarsh Square and Kintore Avenue have now concluded. Thank you for providing your feedback. The two motorcycle zones will remain as timed areas to provide availability for motorcycle riders who only need to park for a few hours as opposed to all day on any given day. To boost the availability of motorcycle parking we have implemented additional free all-day motorcycle parking in Hyde Street. We will continue to look for opportunities to install on-street motorcycle parking where appropriate. There is also motorcycle parking availability within each of UPark locations., and free motorcycle parking in Victoria Square/Tarntanya.

What would we like from you?

Your feedback on a trial of a 6-month timed 3-hour parking limit for motorcyclists within existing (currently unrestricted) motorcycle parking zones in Hindmarsh Square and Kintore Avenue.

The timed motorcycle parking trial will run for a 6-month period from 7 January to 7 June 2019 and consist of 7 clearly identifiable spaces in Hindmarsh Square and 4 spaces in Kintore Avenue (see locations opposite). Free on-footpath motorcycle parking will still be available in Hindmarsh Square and other locations in the CBD.

Background

We are continuously seeking ways to improve accessibility to the city for all modes of transport, including motorcycles and scooters.

Over the last three years we have actively increased motorcycle parking in the city, both on-street and on-footpath. There are over 1,000 free on-street motorcycle parks, including 140 free spaces on designated footpaths. Only 24 parks are timed controlled. All locations have signage and line marking to indicate where parking is permitted, and to assist riders to ensure safe parking.

Motorcycle parking is also available in our city UParks.

Because most of the on-street and on-footpath motorcycle parks are unrestricted, and used by motorcyclists to park all day, visitors who travel to the city by motorcycle have advised us that they often find it difficult to find a park.

The purpose of trialling timed motorcycle parks in Hindmarsh Square and Kintore Avenue is to better understand the need and demand for short term motorcycle parking in the city, and to better support motorcycle access for visitors and shoppers to the city.
