At the start of the semester, finding a parking spot can be challenging, especially if you're arriving on campus just minutes before your lecture or class starts in a few minutes.
Plan your journey and arrive with plenty of time to find a parking spot. Sometimes you might need to walk a little further to get to your location during busy periods.
There is always lots of space available in Car Park 20, which is across Grand Boulevard opposite Building 1.
It is also essential that you have a valid paid parking permit which can be obtained online. At ECU we've tried to make parking permits as affordable as possible. If you are experiencing financial hardships that are affecting your ability to attend university, look at our Financial Support resources.
Consider if using public transport is an option for you. Recent fair changes have made catching the train or bus much more affordable.
Please do not park in the car parks belonging to neighbouring businesses and services as this limits their clients from accessing their services.
