🚗➜🚌 The parking spot you didn't know you already had.

With 22 Park and Ride facilities across Canberra, it's easy to park your car and continue your journey by bus or light rail.

Whether you're travelling to work, study or heading into the city, Park and Ride can help make your trip easier and reduce the need to drive the whole way.

✅ Convenient locations across Canberra
✅ Easy connections to bus and light rail services
✅ Parking conditions may vary by location, so be sure to check signage when you arrive

🚶‍♀️🚲🛴 Canberra's paths are shared by everyone.

A parked e-scooter or e-bike might not seem like a big deal, but where it's parked can make a big difference to other path users – especially when it blocks someone using a wheelchair, pushing a pram or navigating with low vision.

When you finish your ride, take a moment to park considerately.
✅ Keep footpaths and shared paths clear
⛔ Don’t park on access points, crossings, tactiles and driveways
💚 Consider the needs of pedestrians, cyclists and other path and road users, including people with disability.

Every rider has a responsibility to park safely. A considerate park helps keep Canberra moving safely and accessibly for everyone.
