Council is offering alternative parking options to make your daily commute easier, whether you are headed to Newcastle East, the Civic Precinct, Newcastle West or Wickham.
Park and Ride: We want to get as many commuters as possible using our park and ride service operating at McDonald Jones Stadium.
Users can dodge the rush-hour traffic, skip the parking hassles, and park, ride, relax and – at just $2.20 a day – save money. For commuters paying $8 a day and working 48 weeks a year, this is a savings of almost $1440
No2 Sportsground: No.2 Sportsground car park has 200 parking spaces, including six disabled spaces, just six minutes' walk from the King St fare-free bus stop, seven minutes to Hunter Street and eight minutes to Honeysuckle's business centre. At just $6 a day Monday-Friday and free on weekends, this is one of the cheapest all-day paid parking options anywhere in the city centre.
EasyPark mobile app: Our new smart phone app means that you no longer have to feed coins into the meter or swipe your credit card at the meter.
Commuters who use our park-and-ride service from the stadium can also use the app to pay for parking remotely. Find more information about all of these services at council's website, newcastle.nsw.gov.au.
