We are committed to providing modern, easily accessible and secure parking for our customers and retailers seven days a week.

We have introduced the new parking system in response to feedback from our customers, who have told us the car park at Oakleigh Central has become congested by commuters using the available parking which means they aren’t able to access convenient car parks throughout the day.

Our new modern parking is a timed and ticketless system based on licence plate recognition.

On entry there is no boom gate or tickets given so you can drive straight in with a digital board displaying your arrival time.

Once inside, you can easily find available spaces with the parking guidance technology green and red light indicators showing you where to park. Real-time electronic display boards will also guide you to available car parking spaces indicating the direction and quantity available.

When you are ready to leave, if your visit is within two hours, you’ll enjoy free parking and you can simply proceed to any exit, the parking system will recognise your licence plate and the boom gate will raise automatically – it’s that easy.

If you stay longer than two hours, simply pay for your parking at any of the automated pay stations in the centre by entering your licence plate details and paying via credit or debit card or cash. Drive to any exit where the parking system will recognise your licence plate and the boom gate will raise automatically.

Alternatively register your details with us and simply drive to any exit and if there are any parking fees, you’ll enjoy quick drive in, drive out convenience as we’ll automatically charge your credit card. You can view your transactions in your online account at parking.vicinity.com.au.
