For a guaranteed off-street option, the nearby Parksy listings include secure private, commercial garage, Woolworths and private garage spaces in Brunswick and Brunswick East. These are separate from the council park and the centre car park, so they suit drivers who prefer a reserved space rather than searching for an available bay on arrival. ## Three-Hour Enforcement and Busy Shopping Times The centre announced that a three-hour parking limit would be enforced and monitored from 1 December 2025 (barklysquare.com.au). Staff must display a valid permit under the same published parking rules (barklysquare.com.au). Licence-plate recognition is used in the car park, so overstaying the free period is not simply a matter of returning before a physical ticket expires (sites.google.com). Friday trading continues until 9:00pm, while Saturday trading runs from 9:00am to 5:00pm and Sunday trading from 10:00am to 5:00pm (barklysquare.com.au). Those longer Friday hours and weekend shopping periods are the practical times to allow extra time for finding a bay, particularly when the free three-hour allowance is not enough for a longer visit. Show map of Merri-bek ## Parksy Spaces Within 830 Metres of the Centre The closest listed space is a secure private parking space in Brunswick, 320 metres away, priced at $300 a month. A secure 24/7 commercial garage is 680 metres away at $50 a day, while a secure and convenient garage is 750 metres away at $4 an hour. These options beat the centre car park when a reserved space or a stay beyond the three-hour limit matters more than parking beside the shops. A 24/7 space at Woolworths Brunswick is 780 metres away at $50 a day. Secure and convenient private parking in Brunswick East is 790 metres away at $6 an hour, and secure [monthly parking](https://www.parksy.com/blog/find-monthly-parking-near-me-practical-guide) in Brunswick is 830 metres away at $6 a day. The 24/7, hourly and monthly choices are useful for longer visits, workdays or repeat trips when returning to move a car after three hours would be inconvenient. ## Walking From Anstey Station to Barkly Square Anstey is the nearest station, 1.6 kilometres from Barkly Square and a 21-minute walk. The route brings rail travellers into Brunswick before the final walk to the shopping centre at 90-106 Sydney Road, avoiding the need to find a car space for a short shopping trip. For visitors approaching on foot, the centre is in Brunswick near Merri-bek, with Barkly Street Park directly next to the shopping centre (merri-bek.vic.gov.au). The station walk is therefore a practical alternative when the centre’s three-hour parking rule does not suit the length of the visit.
