PARKING
Casual parking is available on campus for $24 per day - however, during the O-Week period, it will be very difficult to find a parking spot on the university grounds. There is metered parking in Glebe (near Arundel St), Newtown (north King St) and in Camperdown around the Carillon Ave area. There are public parking stations at Broadway Shopping Centre and on Carillon Ave.
Motorbikes and scooters are not permitted to park on campus except in signed areas. These are near the entrances from Ross St, Western Ave, City Rd and Shepherd St (next to the Civil Engineering building). Parking here is at no cost.

SPACESHIP
For our intergalactic visitors, the University of Sydney is located on Planet Earth, the third planet from the Sun, and the fifth-largest planet in the Solar system. This can be found by taking the express route to the Milky Way. Once in Earth’s orbit, enjoy a stunning view of the Moon that orbits the Earth, and for the lucky few, you might catch a glimpse of the flag that was planted in 1969. Before entering Earth’s atmosphere, please ensure co-ordinates are set to the continent of Australia and onwards to Camperdown/Darlington Campus, as Earth’s gravity may interfere with your ship’s navigation system. Parking permits of your spaceship/saucer/rocket must be pre-approved and pre-arranged by both the University of Sydney and the Department of Intergalactic Affairs and Trade. Designated parking zones will be determined on approval and at the discretion of the University of Sydney.
