    Requesting a Parking Officer

    Request a parking officer on My Port Phillip to investigate a suspected illegally parked vehicle.

    You can also use the Snap Send Solve app, which directly notifies our officers. Parking patrols operate between 6:00 am and 11:00 pm, seven days a week.

    For vehicles blocking a driveway or creating a safety hazard, use the Snap Send Solve app or call 03 9209 6777 before 11:00 pm. For urgent matters after 11:00 pm, please contact Victoria Police.

    Policies and strategies

    We are committed to supporting a well-connected transportation future for our City, to make it easy for people to move around and connect with places in a way that suits them as our City grows.

    Council's commitment is guided by the Move, Connect Live Integrated Transport Strategy and the Parking Management Policy.

    Parking revenue

    Parking fees and permit fees help to maintain local roads and parking assets. We fund these with limited support from other levels of government. 

    These fees are separate from our rates charges. Only those who use the parking spaces or permits pay for their use.
