On-street parking in Kilbirnie
The Council provides a range of parking services and facilities to make accessing the city and suburbs easy and safe.
Weekend parking in the inner city is free in on-street parking spaces, and at Civic Square and the Michael Fowler Centre car parks, but time restrictions apply. There is a lower weekend charge and longer term parking available at the Clifton Terrace car park.
In addition to the Council parking buildings, low-cost weekend parking fees are available at some commercial car parks located in the city centre.

Parking buildings are clearly marked with blue signage, and located throughout the central business district.
Motorcycle Parking Campaign
The number of motorcycles and scooters in Wellington city far exceed available on-road parks, and many riders are parking illegally on footpaths, at the end of parallel parks and near pedestrian crossings.
Due to the lack of space and pressure to increase other types of parking, it is not possible to create more on-road motorcycle / scooter parking. To help riders find suitable and legal parking, the Council is running an awareness campaign highlighting where to park, as riders parking illegally cause problems for others (eg pedestrians on footpaths) and make roads unsafe.
