Overview
While Premier Daniel Andrews has told Melburnians to keep working from home if they can, not everyone is lucky enough to be able to work remotely. For those who can't — and want to avoid spending too long on public transport — there's a new affordable solution: $5 all-day parking.
For June and July, The District Docklands is charging just $5 per day, seven days a week. If you only need to pop in to do a chore or two, it's also offering 90 minutes of free parking — which is particularly nifty now that City of Melbourne's parking inspectors have resumed handing out all fines from May 11.
As The District Docklands is located just outside of the CBD, near Marvel Stadium, you will need to walk about 30 minutes to your workplace (depending where it's located) or jump on the City Circle, 70 or 86 tram on Docklands Drive. As it's part of the Free Tram Zone, you won't need to pay a cent, either.
The reduced parking fees will only be in place for a limited time, so check the website before heading in.
