About the parking changes

Council is proposing to explore opportunities to increase parking around Five Dock Park.

The proposed changes include:

• 19 additional car spaces to be created for people visiting the park
  • Requires one existing BBQ to be decommissioned
  • Requires the removal of one tree which will be replanted in a location determined by our trees team
• Parking bays on Barnstaple Road to be reconstructed to create 25 car and 4 motorbike parking bays
  • One parking space will be converted into a disabled parking spot
• 3 speed cushions to be constructed on Barnstaple Road to slow down drivers. This will not impact parking.

We are also proposing to construct a footpath and shared path around part of Five Dock Park, which involves some traffic and parking changes. Learn more here.

We asked for community feedback on these parking changes from 4 November - 8 December 2024.
