The council provides free car parks and on-street car parking in a variety of locations around Rodney District. Please check the time limits whenever you park your car in township areas – limits are clearly displayed on blue signs.
Illegal parking
A vehicle is illegally parked if it is:
- on the footpath
- on the berm or verge (not always considered illegal depending on the situation)
- parked without consideration for other road users
- parked over a vehicle entrance or accessway
- causing obstruction to traffic
- parked contrary to parking signs or markings (for example, on broken yellow lines)
- has been abandoned or stolen & remains at that site for at least 7 days
- not currently licensed and without a current evidence of inspection
To report a vehicle that is illegally/dangerously parked please contact us.
Trucks parked at night
A truck parked on the road at night must have a red light displayed at the rear that is visible for 100m, and be legally parked (see legal parking definition above). A truck can park in a public car park at night.
