Why is the Shire engaging on this project?

    To gain feedback on the proposed four-hour parking restrictions and to gain any concerns from businesses or residents.

    Why implement a four-hour restriction?

    The four-hour restriction is seen as a reasonable time to allow shoppers to attend local businesses, while promoting use of the Byford Train Station paid parking by train commuters.

    Will restrictions be implemented in residential areas?

    The Shire has considered the impact on residential areas and have found varied feedback from other local governments who have had train stations built in existing residential areas. The Shire intends on monitoring the conditions when the station is implemented and can implement a four-hour parking restriction in the residential area if required to deter commuter parking if this occurs.
