Birubi Beach Smart Parking
Birubi Beach Smart Parking
The meters and signs are now being installed at Birubi Headland and are expected to be operational in November 2024.
Smart parking is designed to improve the turn-over of parking spaces to create more equitable access to parking at Birubi Headland. Smart parking also provides a revenue stream to support local infrastructure projects. The existing resident and business Park Free Permit Scheme currently used in Nelson Bay will be extended to include paid parking at Birubi Headland. Similarly, parking guidance and payment apps will be extended to the Birubi Headland area.
9P = 9 hours.
4P = 4 hours.
All revenue generated from Smart Parking is reinvested into local projects. Smart Parking Infrastructure Plans are developed in partnership with the community to identify how the funds will be spent.
