It can be more difficult for some, particularly those who need to arrive later in the day, and we appreciate everyone\u2019s patience as we navigate this peak period together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With parking activity picking up at the start of Semester 2, we\u2019re continuing to do what we can to help manage parking demand and support both staff and students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To help, we\u2019re asking everyone to <strong>plan ahead<\/strong> and consider alternative ways of getting to campus, particularly during those first few hectic weeks. Even small changes like carpooling with a friend or catching the bus can make a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some options to help you beat the parking blues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Public transport<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that <a href=\"https:\/\/properties.curtin.edu.au\/getting-here\/public-transport\/\">11 bus routes<\/a> service Curtin and the Curtin Central Bus Station? It\u2019s a <strong>convenient, cost-effective way<\/strong> to get to class without the stress of searching for a bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also partnered with Horizons West to deliver <a href=\"https:\/\/properties.curtin.edu.au\/getting-here\/campus-buses\/\">Curtin Access Bus Service<\/a> (CABS). This <strong>free, safe and convenient<\/strong> transport for students and staff travels has five routes servicing the campus, Technology Park and nearby suburbs including Waterford, Bentley, Victoria Park and South Perth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cycling &amp; walking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prefer to ride or walk? We\u2019ve got you covered with <strong>bike hubs and end-of-trip facilities<\/strong>. It\u2019s healthy, sustainable, and often faster than you think. Check out the available facilities on the <a href=\"https:\/\/properties.curtin.edu.au\/getting-here\/cycling\/\">Curtin Properties website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Temporary parking options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To ease the pressure, the following measures are in place:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Temporary Car Parks (<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/campusmap.curtin.edu.au\/bentley\/?poi=1002336110\"><strong>TCP1<\/strong><\/a><strong> &amp; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/campusmap.curtin.edu.au\/bentley\/?poi=1002336114\"><strong>TCP2<\/strong><\/a><strong>)<\/strong>: located at the&nbsp;<strong>northern end of campus<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/campusmap.curtin.edu.au\/bentley\/?poi=829982\"><strong>Technology Park<\/strong><\/a>: a good option on\u00a0<strong>Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays<\/strong>\u00a0(the busiest days) with\u00a0<strong>FREE CABS buses<\/strong>\u00a0running regularly to campus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Parking trends you should know<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you plan your commute to campus, get the inside scoop on our parking trends:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Weeks 1 to 3<\/strong> are the busiest for parking, with high demand across campus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Weeks 4 to 6<\/strong> remain busy, though you might have a better chance of securing a bay.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Weeks 7 onwards<\/strong> are much quieter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays<\/strong> are the busiest days for parking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to everyone who shared feedback &#8211; we\u2019re listening and continuing to explore suggestions and improvements. This includes ongoing consultation to inform both short-term action and long-term planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, we think it\u2019s important to let you know that in order to responsibly balance our development, financial and sustainability goals, building more multi-storey permanent parking is <strong>not an option <\/strong>at this time. Instead, we\u2019re focused on managing access in a way that\u2019s fair and balanced for our growing and diverse campus community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you again for your cooperation and support.
