## Parking at Swinburne College

All-day ticketed parking is available on the Hawthorn campus for people arriving by car or motorcycle (swinburne.edu.au). The university also identifies ticketed off-campus car parks near the campus (swinburne.edu.au), giving staff, students and visitors alternatives when a campus bay is unavailable.

The Wakefield Street car park is operated by Nationwide Parking at 19 Wakefield Street, Hawthorn (nationwideparking.com.au). Its published operating hours are 6am to 1am from Monday to Sunday (nationwideparking.com.au). Swinburne's campus map marks ticket parking and visitor parking, so visitors should use the signed visitor areas rather than assuming every campus space has the same conditions (swinburne.edu.au).

## Shopping and Public Car Parks Around Hawthorn

Ticketed off-campus car parks are available near the Hawthorn campus, according to Swinburne's campus travel guidance (swinburne.edu.au). These facilities are useful for a full class day when on-campus parking is busy, while the campus map shows the surrounding parking locations for planning an approach (swinburne.edu.au).

The Wakefield Street facility at 19 Wakefield Street is outside the campus itself and provides a practical alternative for drivers heading to the nearby buildings (nationwideparking.com.au). Its access window runs from 6am to 1am every day (nationwideparking.com.au), which suits early arrivals and evening activities, although it is not an all-night option.

## Busy Periods and Street Restrictions Near the Campus

Parking demand is likely to be highest during teaching periods, when students and staff arrive across the Hawthorn campus, and during open days or campus events when visitors are added to the normal weekday traffic. The university specifically provides all-day ticketed parking for car and motorcycle arrivals, indicating that drivers should plan for paid campus parking rather than rely on an unrestricted street bay (swinburne.edu.au).

Street parking around the campus is subject to signed restrictions, while Swinburne's map identifies ticket parking, visitor parking and motorcycle parking separately (swinburne.edu.au). The Wakefield Street car park is open until 1am, making it more suitable for evening events than a bay with a shorter operating window (nationwideparking.com.au).

## Parksy Spaces Near Swinburne

Parksy lists a premium 24/7 space at the Swinburne Hawthorn car park, a few steps away at 90 metres, priced at $4 an hour. A secure garage space in Central Melbourne is also 90 metres away at $2.25 an hour. These closest hourly spaces suit students, staff and visitors needing short or flexible stays.

For a full day, an undercover Hawthorn space 130 metres away costs $11.70 a day, while a secure space at Glenferrie Centre is 230 metres away at $13 a day. Two further 24/7 spaces are listed at 270 metres and 340 metres, each priced at $4 an hour, with one at Swinburne and one at the Swinburne car park. The daily options suit staff and students attending longer sessions, while the 24/7 spaces are useful for visitors with variable arrival times.

## Walking From Auburn and Kew Stations

Auburn is the nearest train station, 660 metres from the campus and about a 9-minute walk. The station is the most direct rail option for students, staff and visitors arriving without a car.

Kew railway station is another train option, around an 18-minute walk from the campus. Drivers using a Parksy space can combine parking with a short walk to the campus, while rail passengers can avoid the ticketed campus and nearby off-campus car parks altogether.
