Parking zones

Disabled Zones

Designated disabled, wheelchair-accessible parking zones are available throughout the CBD and Multi-storey car park 

Disabled permits must be displayed while using a disabled parking zone.  

Free Disability Parking in Burnie changes from Oct 2024:

• The free parking is limited to the existing Designated Disability Zones only. If you hold a disability permit and you are not within a designated disability zone, you will still need to pay for parking as per normal.
• The stated timeframes on the parking signage still apply.
• If you are parking in the designated disability zones in the Multi-Storey Car park, you will need to ensure that you exit the car park before 6.30pm (before the ticket booth closes) to avoid being charged the exit fee.

Permanent permit applications are available from Service Tasmania and temporary permit applications are available through Council.
