How to avoid a parking fine

Follow these simple tips to avoid receiving a fine:

• Take the time to read the parking signs (there may be more than one parking restriction that applies)
• Think about how much time you will need when choosing a time-restricted parking bay
• Park where the restrictions suit your needs
• Park legally in unrestricted areas
• Clearly display any paid parking ticket on your dashboard so that all details can be seen from outside the vehicle or pay for parking using PayStay

Your vehicle was towed from a clearway and you received a fine

City of Whitehorse clearways are patrolled by a towing company appointed by the Department of Transport and Planning.

The towing company may tow away and impound your vehicle if you park it in a clearway during clearway times.

Council is not involved in this process, however, infringements may be issued by a Parking Service Officer or by the Department of Transport and Planning.

We will issue an infringement but we will not tow and impound your car. You can check if your car was towed and impounded from a clearway by visiting the Department of Transport and Planning Clearway Towing page.
