## Wallen Road Reserve Parking for Melbourne Tram Museum

The most practical parking for Melbourne Tram Museum is the Wallen Road Reserve, on the city side of the depot (hawthorntramdepot.org.au). This places drivers close to the entrance at 8 Wallen Road, Hawthorn VIC 3122, without relying on spaces inside the heritage site.

Disabled parking spaces are available in both the depot fan and the Wallen Road Reserve (hawthorntramdepot.org.au). The depot's own car parking is very limited, so visitors using a car may need to park some distance away and walk (onlymelbourne.com.au). Entry to the attraction is by gold coin donation, with indicative prices of $1 to $5 (visitvictoria.com).

## Nearby Parking Around Hawthorn and Burnley

Drivers who find the reserve full can use a secure carport space in Hawthorn, 220 m from the site, priced at $9.30 a day. A secure private space in Hawthorn is 360 m away and costs $5 an hour, while a private space in Burnley is 540 m away at $500 a month.

Further options include a private parking space in Burnley, 600 m away, priced at $40 a week, and secure covered parking in Hawthorn East, 620 m away, at $80 a week. Secure covered parking in Hawthorn is 650 m away and costs $3 an hour. The Wallen Road Reserve remains the specifically identified visitor option for the depot (hawthorntramdepot.org.au).

## Busy Open Days and Parking Rules Near the Depot

Depot parking is especially constrained when Melbourne Tram Museum opens to visitors, because the available spaces are described as very limited (onlymelbourne.com.au). Drivers planning to attend an open day should allow for a walk from Wallen Road Reserve or another nearby space rather than depending on a place inside the depot.

Wallen Road Reserve is on the city side of the museum and is identified by the operator as the local car-parking location (hawthorntramdepot.org.au). Disabled spaces are provided in the depot fan and the reserve (hawthorntramdepot.org.au). The site is within the heritage-listed Hawthorn Tram Depot, so parking closest to the trams is not a reliable choice when visitor demand is high (visitvictoria.com).

## Parksy Spaces Within Walking Distance of Melbourne Tram Museum

The closest Parksy listing is a secure carport in Hawthorn, 220 m away, with 24/7 access and a price of $9.30 a day. A secure private parking space in Hawthorn is 360 m from the site and is priced at $5 an hour, giving short visits a clearly stated hourly option.

For longer stays, a private parking space in Burnley is 540 m away at $500 a month, while another private space in Burnley is 600 m away for $40 a week. Secure covered parking in Hawthorn East is 620 m away at $80 a week. A secure covered space in Hawthorn is 650 m away and costs $3 an hour.

## Walking and Rail Access From Heyington Station

Heyington is the nearest station to Melbourne Tram Museum, at 850 m from the site and an 11-minute walk. This is the clearest rail-based approach for visitors who prefer to avoid the limited depot parking and the need to search around Wallen Road.

The address is 8 Wallen Road, Hawthorn VIC 3122, in Hawthorn near Burnley. From Heyington, the 850 m walk provides a direct car-free alternative to using the Wallen Road Reserve or a nearby private space, particularly for visitors attending an open day when depot parking is limited.
