About the project
City of Parramatta is seeking community feedback on a proposal to install angle parking spaces on the western side of Morton Street, between Broughton Street and Gibson Road, Parramatta.
The proposal aims to increase the number of available on-street parking spaces in the area while also improving road safety. By changing the parking arrangement from parallel parking to angle parking, the effective width of the road will be reduced, which is expected to help calm traffic and reduce vehicle speeds along this section of Morton Street.
Proposed changes
The proposal includes:
- Installing angle parking spaces on the western side of Morton Street between Broughton Street and Gibson Road
- Increasing the number of available on-street parking spaces
- Creating a traffic calming effect by narrowing the usable roadway width
- Supporting safer vehicle movements and lower traffic speeds along the street

Why are we proposing this change?
Council has identified opportunities to improve parking availability in the area while also enhancing road safety outcomes.
The proposed angle parking arrangement is expected to:
- Provide additional parking spaces for residents and visitors
- Make more efficient use of the available road space
- Help reduce vehicle speeds through traffic calming measures
- Improve the overall function of the street environment
Have your say
We want to hear from residents, businesses, property owners and road users. You are invited to have your say on the proposal. Submissions are welcome until 5pm on Friday 16 October 2026.
You can provide feedback by:
- Completing the online submission form

Next steps
Once the public exhibition period closes, submissions will be carefully reviewed to determine the next steps for the project. If there are no substantial objections to the proposal and it receives approval from Council and the Parramatta Traffic Forum, the construction works for this project is expected to take place in early 2027.
