5Area parking control signs#
5.1General#
Power for a local government to establish parking control on any road within its area is contained in the Transport Operations (Road Use Management) Act 1995 (Qld).
A local government may, under a local law, define any part of its area to be controlled by regulated parking. This area must be authorised, defined and signed before any form of regulated parking – whether it is by parking meters, parkatareas or time limits – can be established. Official traffic signs must be installed on every road where the area boundary crosses it. These signs must display the name of the area, the hours and days of the week that regulated parking applies and the maximum period of time for which a vehicle may be parked in such Parking Area during these hours and on those days unless otherwise signed.
