Q: How does the ticketless managed parking system work?

A: It is a timed, ticketless parking system based on licence plate recognition. On entry, a camera will recognise vehicle rego numbers. Customers won’t be required to stop as no ticket will be issued. 

Customers who park in the multi-level car parks can locate available car spaces using the red, green and blue° LED light system overhead.

Customers who park in the outdoor car parks can locate available car space using the electronic sign boards located at the various entries.

A: The first 3 hours of parking is free*. Customers who have been at the centre for less than three hours will not be required to pay for their parking and can proceed directly to the exit. Upon exit, the camera will recognise the customer’s rego and the boom gate will automatically open.
