Parking for service and trade vehicles Parking for service and trade vehicles

Auckland Transport (AT) are finding ways to reduce the dependence on on-street car parks and loading zones, manage congestion and improve the ways service, trade and delivery businesses access their CBD clients and customers.

We've reserved car park spaces for loading and service vehicles in Victoria Street Car Park (VCP). There are 3 dedicated parking spaces on Level 6 (entry level) in the right-hand corner, as well as several spaces on the ground floor level. Look for the 'P30 Loading and Servicing Vehicles only' signs that mark these parking bays.

Cost

Parking is free for the first 30 minutes. For short stays you won't need to use the pay machine or your AT Park App. Exit the building within 30 minutes and the barrier arms will automatically let you out.

After 30 minutes the parking fee per hour or part thereof is:

  • $5 (the standard hourly rate)
  • $2 after 6pm or on weekends

Parking can be paid via the AT Park App or at the pay machine.

Eligibility

These reserved parking spaces are for loading and servicing vehicles only. They are available on a first come first served basis. We cannot guarantee a space. If there are no spaces available, please use casual parking spaces on other floors.

Vehicle clearance and access

The vehicle height restriction on both entry and exit is 2m high and 2.57m wide.

There are 2 pedestrian access doors on the ground floor (High Street level) that you must exit through. Both doors are 2100mm high by 850mm wide. If you have large delivery items or goods, check they will fit through these access doors.
