Parking standards in non-restrained areas
In rural areas and towns with limited public transport, development is generally expected to meet Department parking standards unless subject to parking restraint through the development plan.
In many locations however it will remain important that development makes adequate provision for car parking. This is particularly important in rural areas and those towns and villages where the potential for using public transport is limited. Accordingly, with the exceptions outlined above, development proposals in areas not subject to parking restraint through the development plan process will generally be expected to meet the Department's parking standards.
