Special permits

Departments and faculties

Yellow permits are available for department and faculty usage when they would like to pay for their visitor parking or if staff are travelling between campuses for business purposes. Yellow permits cannot be purchased for personal use.

Yellow permits:

• Allow you to park in Yellow and Blue areas on all campuses
• Can be purchased for 2hr, 4hr, or daily parking sessions (5+ hours)
• Can be purchased immediately or in advance of specific times
• Must include an associated vehicle registration number

Permit prices

Departmental or faculty budgets are used to pay for Yellow permits. Payment will be processed at the start of each month for the previous month’s activity and a report on usage can be accessed by authorised users.

Effective from 19 February 2024.

The 5 hour (all day) permit covers a full day of parking (12.00am to 11.59pm) on the permit date recorded in the vPermit system.

Authorised administrators

Only authorised administrators may purchase Yellow permits on behalf of their organisational unit.

To become an authorised administrator please submit the vPermit Parking Administrator Form. You will be notified via email once your application has been approved.

For more information on how to purchase a Yellow permit using the vPermit portal, see our guide.

Contractors

There are two parking options for inducted contractors who work on our campuses. You can either pay as you use with CellOPark and only pay for the time you park, or purchase an annual permit.

Both parking options allow you to park in Blue areas all day, or Yellow areas for a maximum of 2 hours at a time.

Parking prices

Annual permits will be charged a pro-rata amount depending on when the permit is purchased during the current year.

Pay as you use rates are revised in February each year.
