Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking on the University of Wollongong Wollongong Campus Parking on the Wollongong Campus is limited and fills quickly at the start of session, with less parking available than usual due to construction of the new campus facilities (uow.edu.au). Campus parking is restricted, and drivers are responsible for paying the relevant parking fee under the University’s Traffic and Parking Policy (uow.edu.au). Visitors can use the campus parking system, with CellOPark identified by the University as the easiest way to pay because parking can be started and stopped through the app (uow.edu.au). The official University pages identify CellOPark as the payment method, while the published campus material supplied here does not provide a rate or car park capacity for the Wollongong Campus. ## Parksy Parking Spaces Around the Keiraville Campus Students and staff looking for a regular alternative can choose a secure private parking space in Wollongong, 2.1 km from the campus, for $130 a month. A secure private parking space at the same distance is also available for $7 a day, giving occasional campus users a daily option. Visitors seeking a lower daily price can use an affordable public parking space in Wollongong, 2.1 km away, for $5 a day. A secure underground parking space in North Wollongong is 2.1 km away and costs $7.50 a day, while a secure covered space in Gwynneville is 1.6 km away at $1 an hour. The Wollongong Private Hospital car park is 2.2 km away and costs $36 an hour, making it more suited to short visits than a full study day. Show map of Wollongong ## Shopping and Council Parking Near the Campus The Innovation Campus has short-term visitor parking in the P1 car park, and parking on that campus is free (innovationcampus.com.au). Innovation Campus is a separate University location from the Wollongong Campus in Sciences Road, so it is most useful for drivers attending an Innovation Campus destination rather than classes at the main campus. The supplied local parking information identifies Innovation Campus P1 as the nearby free short-term option. It does not provide a shopping-centre car park, council car park, free-period rule or public-car-park rate for the area around Sciences Road, so drivers heading to the main campus should use the campus parking arrangements or a Parksy space described above. ## Busy Periods and Restrictions Around Wollongong Campus The most difficult time to find a campus space is the start of session, when Wollongong Campus parking fills quickly (uow.edu.au). Construction of new campus facilities has also reduced the amount of parking available (uow.edu.au), making early arrival particularly important for students and staff who need to park on University land. Parking on University land is restricted, and the University’s Traffic and Parking Policy states that drivers are responsible for paying the relevant parking fee (policies.uow.edu.au). The supplied University pages do not publish separate event, open-day or surrounding-street restrictions for Sciences Road, so the clearest pressure points supported here are the start of session and the current construction period. ## Walking From North Wollongong Railway Station North Wollongong railway station is the nearest station to the campus. The station is 1.3 km away, a 16-minute walk from the University’s Sciences Road address. For visitors arriving by train, walking from North Wollongong avoids the limited campus parking supply and the start-of-session rush. The campus address is Sciences Road, Keiraville NSW 2500, Wollongong, Australia, while the station remains the closest rail access identified for this location.
