Accessible Parking

Availability of Accessible Parking

Accessible parking bays are located on each campus. See Deakin University campus maps for locations.

Car wheelchair transferParking on Campus for People with a Disability

Regular parking in ‘disabled’ bays requires a current Local Government Category 1 ‘Disabled’ parking permit as well as a Deakin University parking zone permit. Persons with a Local Government Category 1 ‘Disabled’ permit are entitled to a 50% discount on all permit costs. See Parking and Traffic on Campus link below.

Limited short-term parking bays are available for people with a current Local Government Category 1 ‘Disabled’ parking permit; however, typically, campus users will require a University permit to park on-campus. Please allow enough time to organise permits. Present your category 1 permit at the cashier’s office to obtain your discount.

On the Waterfront and Melbourne campuses people with Local Government Category 1 ‘Disabled’ parking permit may be able to obtain undercover reserved parking at a 50% discount of the reserved permit cost. Obtaining a reserved parking bay does not restrict people from using other accessible parking bays provided on campus or other red or blue bays.
