## Parking at Victoria University of Wellington, Kelburn Campus

VUWKC visitor parking is short term only: visitors may stay for a maximum of two hours and must book a space through the university (wgtn.ac.nz). Longer visits can use the paid car park at 16 Kelburn Parade (wgtn.ac.nz).

Student parking includes 20 Kelburn Parade, with 15 spaces behind Gate 13, 93 Kelburn Parade, with five spaces in front, and 83 Fairlie Terrace, with four spaces behind (wgtn.ac.nz). These locations are useful for permit holders who need to park close to teaching buildings, while booked visitor parking suits short appointments.

[Wilson Parking](https://www.parksy.com/blog/wilson-parking-review-pros-cons-summary-services) operates Kelburn Car Park, and its listing also shows Victoria Street Parking Centre and Lipman Street options from $5 (wilsonparking.co.nz). The operator's listing identifies the Victoria Street site at 15-21 Victoria Street and the Lipman Street car park at 4-6 Lipman Street (wilsonparking.co.nz).

## When Kelburn Parking Is Hardest

Parking pressure is highest when classes are running, particularly around the start and end of teaching days, because student and staff demand reaches the campus at similar times.

Kelburn council parking sections charge $5 an hour from Monday to Friday and $3 an hour on Saturday and Sunday, with fees applying from 8am to 8pm (wellington.govt.nz). Those paid street sections cover surrounding Kelburn streets, so they are not a substitute for unrestricted campus parking.

Campus parking rules leave parking outside visitor areas restricted to permit holders (wgtn.ac.nz). Drivers attending an event should therefore allow time for a booked visitor space or an off-campus car park rather than relying on an unreserved university space.

## Other Car Parks Around Kelburn and Wellington Central

The fee is $5 an hour on weekdays and $3 an hour at weekends, with payment hours from 8am to 8pm (wellington.govt.nz). These spaces suit visitors who need a short stay near Kelburn rather than a university permit.

Wilson Parking lists Victoria Street Parking Centre at 15-21 Victoria Street and a car park at 4-6 Lipman Street, both from $5 (wilsonparking.co.nz). Victoria Street and Lipman Street are useful choices for drivers approaching from central Wellington, while the council sections are closer to Kelburn street destinations.

For a brief campus visit, the university's booked visitor parking has a two-hour maximum (wgtn.ac.nz). Longer stays are better matched to the paid car park at 16 Kelburn Parade or an off-campus facility, rather than trying to extend a short-term visitor booking.

## Parksy Spaces Near VUWKC

The closest priced Parksy option is a Skyline car park in Kelburn, 400 m away, at $2.50 an hour. It is the most economical listed choice for students, staff or visitors who need to leave a car near the campus without using a university permit.

A Mayfair rooftop space in Wellington Central is 250 m away at $5 an hour. A space at 138 Ghuznee Street in Te Aro is 310 m away at $5 an hour and operates 24/7. These central options suit visitors coming from Te Aro or Wellington Central, with the Ghuznee Street space particularly useful for early or late arrivals.

Upper Willis Street is 440 m away at $6 an hour, Church Street is 470 m away at $3 an hour, and an off-street Te Aro space is 510 m away at $4 an hour. The lower-priced Church Street and Te Aro choices suit longer student or staff visits, while Upper Willis Street suits visitors prioritising a central approach.

## Rail and Walking Access to Kelburn Parade

Wellington Railway Station is the nearest station listed for VUWKC. The station is 1.6 km away, with a 21-minute walk to the campus. Rail passengers can therefore reach Kelburn Parade without needing a campus parking permit.

The campus is 400 m from Kelburn centre.

Drivers can use a nearby Parksy space or a council parking section before continuing on foot, while booked campus visitor parking is intended for short visits.
