1 / Alexandria – Parking Studies – Results

BackgroundFollowing ongoing requests from Alexandria residents to take action to alleviate the impact of commuter parking and overstaying of restrictions in a number of streets in the Alexandria Area, parking compliance and occupancy surveys have been undertaken.

The Area The area surveyed was bounded by Railway Parade, Explorer Street, Rowley Street, Henderson Road, Mitchell Road, Copeland Street and Swanson Street, Alexandria.

Map of Area Surveyed

MethodologyEach street in the area was surveyed three times on four days (for a total of 12 separate occasions) in late November and early December 2018 – to provide a representative sample of the occupancy and compliance of the street.

Vehicles parked using a mobility permit (where existing time limits exceeded 30 minutes) or with a residential permit were categorised as compliant.

Streets which are unrestricted did not record a non-compliance figure, and this nil value is not included in average non-compliance figures.
