Canberra Centre (Monaro Mall) Car Park: Rates, Access and Hours
The centre’s car park is operated by Wilson Parking, with hourly rates of $4 for up to 1 hour, $5 for up to 2 hours, $9 for up to 3 hours, $13 for up to 4 hours and $23 for up to 5 hours (canberracentre.qicre.com). Wilson Parking lists a $35 rate for 7 hours and $40 for over 7 hours, plus an early-bird rate from $18 for entry between 6am and 9am (wilsonparking.com.au).
Vehicle access is available from Petrie Street and Cooyong Street, while pedestrians can enter from City Walk and Bunda Street (canberracentre.qicre.com). The centre states that its opening hours are 9am to 5.30pm today, although the Wilson listing gives early-bird entry from 6am (canberracentre.qicre.com; wilsonparking.com.au). The official parking page publishes the centre’s rate bands, while the city authority says Canberra city centre parking is open 24/7 (canberracentre.qicre.com; act.gov.au).
Parksy Spaces Within 130 Metres of the Centre
Parksy lists a secure commercial garage space 90 metres from the centre for $800 a month. Four secure private spaces are listed 130 metres away: one costs $75 a week, another $55 a week, another $280 a month, and a 24/7 option costs $80 a week. These spaces suit drivers who want a reserved base near 125 Bunda Street rather than relying on hourly centre parking.
A secure garage 130 metres away is also available for $15 an hour. The weekly and monthly listings can beat the centre car park for repeated commuting, while the hourly garage can be useful when the centre’s published hourly charges would continue through a longer visit. The $90-month commercial garage is the closest Parksy listing, at a few steps away from the centre address.
Other Named Parking Around Canberra City Centre
The authority lists city-centre parking costs from $4 for 1 hour up to $40 for over 7 hours, giving drivers a wider public-parking network beyond the centre’s own car park (act.gov.au).
The named Canberra Centre Car Park at 148 Bunda Street is listed by Wilson Parking, separate from the centre’s general parking information page (wilsonparking.com.au). The centre’s own access information directs vehicles through Petrie Street and Cooyong Street, so those streets are the relevant approach roads when comparing the named facility with nearby city parking (canberracentre.qicre.com).
Weekend Shopping, Sales and Parking Conditions at the Centre
Shopping demand is likely to be strongest when the centre is busy with weekend visits and sales, so arriving before the main shopping period can reduce the risk of circling near the Bunda Street address. The centre publishes separate car park conditions of entry covering driver responsibilities, safety guidelines and parking rules (canberracentre.qicre.com).
Wilson Parking’s listed early-bird arrangement requires entry between 6am and 9am and costs from $18, making it aimed at an early arrival rather than a standard shopping stop (wilsonparking.com.au). Drivers should allow for the centre’s own conditions of entry and any displayed time or enforcement requirements at the facility.
Walking From Canberra’s Rail and City Transport Connections
The centre is at 125 Bunda Street in City, with pedestrian access from City Walk and Bunda Street (canberracentre.qicre.com). Those entrances make the shopping centre practical to approach on foot after parking elsewhere in the city centre, particularly when the closest bays are occupied.
The centre’s official getting-here information identifies car, bus, tram and taxi as access modes, while its vehicle entrances are on Petrie Street and Cooyong Street (canberracentre.qicre.com). For rail-style public transport, the relevant connection is Canberra’s tram network rather than a conventional railway station, and the centre’s site directs visitors to its getting-here information for that access route (canberracentre.qicre.com).
