Staff Parking - Kelvin Grove

Staff wishing to park on campus may either apply for a parking permit or use either the Pay & Display car parks.

Permit Parking:

Staff permit parking is limited to that made available through Faculty or Divisional quota allocations or to Shift Workers.

Parking for staff members who are also QUT Council Members or Shift Workers is made available outside the quota allocations.

Shift Workers: A Shift Worker is a professional staff member defined as a shift worker by the current QUT Enterprise Bargaing Agreement. Staff who fall within this category may apply for a permit to park in the designated Shift Worker zones. These areas are not access controlled and will carry a daily charge of $3.00 (with a maximum annual charge of $720). Staff should be aware that while the number of permits issued will be carefully controlled to maximise the opportuntiy of locating a parking space, no guarantee can be provided. To apply for a permit you will need to complete a Shift Workers Parking Application Form

Faculty or Divisional Quota: A small quota allocation is given to each Faculty and Division to be allocated to staff by the Dean/Head of Division based on QUT work requirements. You are advised to contact your Faculty or Divisional Office if you wish to be considered as part of the quota allocation. Should you be allocated parking from within the quota, you are still required to complete a parking application form and submit it to the Parking Office by the due date.

The quota allocations for the Kelvin Grove campus are restricted to the spaces available within CIP, IHBI and a number of permit based open-air car parks. These spaces will be charged to users at the following rates:
