As Lilydale grows, so do the diverse needs of its community. In response, Council is introducing the Lilydale Parking Precinct Plan to update current parking restrictions within the township and address evolving demands. This project aims to create more equitable parking outcomes, ensuring that residents, business operators, and visitors all benefit from improved accessibility and fair access to parking.

Parking areas which are not managed by Council, such as Lilydale train station and parking associated with private shopping areas, are not included within the proposed changes.

These proposed changes are in line with the Draft Parking Management Framework, as part of Council continuing to review parking infrastructure in individual towns/ areas as required.

Changes to parking restrictions

When reviewing parking in Lilydale, key focus areas include:

  • Maintaining the greatest proportion of short term parking (up to 1 hour) adjacent to shops to facilitate greater turnover.
  • Increasing the number of 2 and 3 hour parking spaces within service roads to provide more parking options for customers.
  • Introducing a 2 hour parking restriction within Lion’s Park (John Street) to highlight public parking availability.
  • Introducing nine (9) 2 hour parking spaces at Lillydale Lake to improve access and turnover for visitors who stay for short periods (222 spaces will remain unrestricted).
