Newington Parking Restrictions

Project background

Newington is primarily a residential area which is located within 2km walking distance from Sydney Olympic Park (SOP). Event attendees park on local streets in Newington during major events at nearby Sydney Olympic Park. This parking has posed a challenge for emergency vehicles, which require a minimum 3.5m travel lane width, and discourages use of public transport for travel to events at SOP.

A staged strategy approach focused on traffic control measures is currently being implemented. The first stage is implementation of on-street measures to regulate the traffic environment at all times, including during major events. New traffic signs have been implemented in several areas following consultation. This stage also includes ongoing monitoring of the changes for efficacy. For details of past consultations, please see the FAQ section below.

Further changes may be undertaken subject to consultation, however, most planned works have been implemented. The second stage will consider a possible Parking Scheme (subject to Council approval). The strategy has been to identify and prioritise traffic and pedestrian safety in the first instance and then look at options to address the amenity impacts being experienced by residents and encouraging use of public transport by event attendees.

Next Stage – Possible consultation for a Special Event Parking Scheme (subject to Council approval)

Consultation on a possible Special Event Parking Scheme (SEPS) will be considered in a Council Report which will be presented to Councillors in June 2026.

A SEPS consists of area wide timed parking restrictions that can be activated during a special event. They allow residents to apply to Council for parking permits that then allow them to park in excess of the signposted timed parking restrictions. Parking permits for visitors of residents would also be available. The permits do not exempt residents from ‘No Stopping’, ‘No Parking, or other statutory restrictions such as parking at intersections or on nature strips.

The process to establish the scheme (subject to Council approval) includes Council making decisions (following community consultation) on the following matters:

  • The size (i.e number of attendees) and/or duration of an event at Sydney Olympic Park that should trigger a SEPS activation (noting that each activation will benefit some residents but may inconvenience others). A low SEPS activation may regularly affect residents’ ability to host personal gatherings. A high SEPS activation trigger will mean there would often still be event parking in the streets closest to SOP.
  • Identifying which areas in Newington should be included in the scheme. Parking demand will likely shift to other parts of Newington or nearby suburbs not covered in the area.
  • What information residents need to provide to prove residency and responsibility for a vehicle to obtain a permit (including for renters or drivers of company cars).
  • The maximum number of permits per household, which may be related to the number of formal parking spaces (eg single/double carport/garage) for the property.
  • The maximum number of visitor permits per household
  • The annual cost of permits.
  • Measures to manage visitor permits to limit misuse (e.g. forwarding to event attendees).
  • Measures to reduce visual pollution from the scale and number of SEPS signs.

Review and enforcement

  1. Council is reviewing traffic and parking conditions on major event days.
  2. Council is undertaking enforcement of illegal parking in relation to the recently installed parking restrictions and statutory restrictions that are not required to be signposted. The focus for enforcement is during major events at Sydney Olympic Park.
  3. Monitoring of the number of parking infringements issued is being undertaken.
  4. Trialling electronic signs to advise motorists of parking enforcement on major event days.

You can contact Council about illegal parking matters as they occur via Council’s Customer Service team on 02 9806 5050. If the matter is not urgent, you can also Submit a Service Request using the following link City of Parramatta Council. Council Officers can attend to parking reports from 6am to 7pm Monday to Sunday.

Council will endeavour to attend as soon as possible to address your concerns, however, please note that during periods of high call volume, attendance to your report may be impacted. Parking reports are prioritised based on any safety concerns that are raised such as blocked driveways, parking in No Stopping zones and intersections for example.

Please note it is not necessary to lodge a parking report during events being held at SOP. Council arranges patrols during major events held at SOP and has officers dedicated to the Newington and Lidcombe area to enforce illegal parking.

Latest community consultation - March 2026

Proposed introduction of further 'No Parking' & 'No Stopping' restrictions

Following positive community feedback and the effectiveness of parking restrictions implemented in two areas of Newington in 2025, residents from additional streets have requested that a similar approach be extended to their streets to manage parking and traffic pressures. ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions are proposed for the following streets:

  • Blue Gum Place
  • Marathon Avenue
  • Bikila Street
  • Clarke Street
  • Comaneci Avenue
  • Watt Avenue
  • Periera Street (near Baker Avenue)

Please note that restrictions are not proposed on private roads under strata or community title.

Council sought community input regarding this proposal and invited submissions until 5pm on Wednesday 8 April 2026.

FAQ (Frequently asked questions)

View All

Site visits undertaken as part of ongoing monitoring have observed that the parking restrictions implemented to date have led to improvements in the area, particularly during events.

Both schemes operate in a similar manner where residents apply to Council for parking permits that then allow them to park in excess of the signposted timed parking restrictions. Eligibility for permits can be the same under either option. Parking permits for visitors would also be available under both options. The permits do not exempt residents from ‘No Stopping’, ‘No Parking, or other statutory restrictions such as parking at intersections or on nature strips.

 

The process to establish either scheme includes making decisions on the following matters:

  • The size or type of event at Sydney Olympic Park that should trigger a SEPS activation (noting that each activation will benefit some residents but may inconvenience others). A low SEPS activation may regularly affect residents’ ability to host personal gatherings. A high SEPS activation trigger will mean there would often still be event parking in the streets closest to Sydney Olympic Park.
  • Identifying which areas in Newington should be included in the scheme. Parking demand will likely shift to other parts of Newington or nearby suburbs not covered in the area.
  • What information residents need to provide to prove residency and responsibility for a vehicle to obtain a permit (including for renters or drivers of company cars).
  • The maximum number of permits per household, which may be related to the number of garages for the property.
  • The annual cost of permits.
  • Measures to manage visitor permits to limit misuse (e.g. forwarding to event attendees).
  • Measures to reduce visual pollution from the scale and number of SEPS or RPS signs.

A RPS is likely to be in force every day. However, it is likely to include unrestricted parking spaces for residents and visitors that do not have a parking permit. A SEPS would apply to every parking space in the scheme area, but it would only apply on days that Council activates the scheme (via changes to the entry signs).

 

The signposting for the two schemes is different. A RPS uses standard parking schemes. A SEPS uses large entry signs that includes dates and times of upcoming activations, and then has repeater signs (that do not include activation dates) throughout the precinct.

You can contact Council about illegal parking matters as they occur via Council’s Customer Service team on 02 9806 5050. If the matter is not urgent, you can also Submit a Service Request using the following link City of Parramatta Council. Council Officers can attend to parking reports from 6am to 7pm Monday to Sunday.

 

Council will endeavour to attend as soon as possible to address your concerns however, please note that during periods of high call volume, attendance to your report may be impacted. Parking reports are prioritised based on any safety concerns that are raised such as blocked driveways, parking in No Stopping zones and intersections for example.

 

Please note it is not necessary to lodge a parking report during events being held at Sydney Olympic Park. Council arranges patrols during major events held at SOPA and has officers dedicated to the Newington and Lidcombe area to enforce illegal parking.

  • Council is reviewing traffic and parking conditions on major event days.

  • Monitoring of the number of parking infringements issued is being undertaken.
  • Trialling electronic signs to advise motorists of parking enforcement on major event days.
  • Consideration will be given to possible further options regarding parking schemes.

Council will invite feedback from our community by undertaking on-line consultation for changes that have the potential for wider impact, such as one-way restrictions or parking changes across a precinct.

 

Where proposed changes may impact very few households, these properties will be notified directly by letter and invited for feedback. This would include a parking change that only applies to one or two streets.

A staged strategy approach focused on traffic control measures. The first stage is implementation of on-street measures to regulate the traffic environment. i.e parking restrictions and direction of flow. The first stage is still underway and works have been implemented and consultation ongoing. This stage includes monitoring of the changes for efficacy.

 

The second stage will consider a Parking Scheme. The strategy has been to identify and prioritise traffic and pedestrian safety in the first instance and then look at options to address the amenity impacts being experienced by residents.

Newington is primarily a residential area which is located within 2km walking distance from Sydney Olympic Park (SOP). Many streets in the area are narrow and access can become restricted when cars are parked on both sides. This issue is especially pronounced during major events at nearby Sydney Olympic Park, when event attendees make use of the local street parking. It poses a particular challenge for emergency vehicles, which require a minimum 3.5m travel lane in width.

The City of Parramatta has consulted with emergency services, who advised that a 3.5m travel lane is required for safe passage of emergency vehicles including fire brigade trucks.

 

Accordingly, Council is proposing to install ‘No Parking’ restrictions (through signage only) on one side of the narrow streets in certain areas of Newington significantly impacted by event parking so that 3.5m wide travel lanes can be maintained.

 

For streets that are 5m wide or less, Council will still maintain parking on one-side of the street which will leave a carriageway width of approximately 3m. It is noted emergency vehicles are able to mount the roll top kerbs in this area with ease and therefore, there access will not be prevented.

This proposal is expected to repurpose approximately 63 car parking spaces.
 
Site inspections indicate that residents are generally parking on one side of these streets. The proposed ‘No Parking’ restrictions have been designed to reflect the existing parking arrangements by restricting parking on one side of the street.

It is proposed that ‘No Parking’ restrictions be applied to one side of the following streets:

  • Blue Gum Place - north side between Newington Boulevard and Popov Avenue
  • Bilkia Street - east side between Blue Gum Place and Zatopek Avenue
  • Marathon Avenue - west side between Zatopek Avenue and Louis Avenue
  • Clarke Street - east side between Louis Avenue and Comaneci Avenue
  • Comaneci Avenue - north side between Newington Boulevard and Mockridge Avenue
  • Watts Avenue - east side between Mockridge Avenue and house No. 7 
  • Watts Avenue- north side between house No.7 and Clarke Street
  • Periera Street - one car space repurposed between Wing Parade and Baker Avenue

In September and October of 2025, Council put forward a proposal for the introduction of one-way streets in the following locations to address access and event-related parking issues.

Nurmi Avenue (south of Wenden Avenue)

  • Option a. Support southwest-bound traffic movement
  • Option b. Support northeast-bound traffic movement
  • Option c. Retain existing two-way traffic movements

Pearce Avenue (between Wenden Avenue and Kuts Avenue)

  • Option d. Support south-bound traffic movement
  • Option e. Support north-bound traffic movement
  • Option f. Retain existing two-way traffic movements

Heidelberg Avenue (between Kuts Avenue and Stevenson Avenue)

  • Option g. Support southbound* traffic movement
  • Option h. Retain existing two-way traffic movement

*Due to the ‘No Parking’ restrictions, Council is only proposing a southbound one-way restriction for Heidelberg Avenue to ensure motorists can park on the left side of the street in line with the proposed traffic flow.

Council continues to monitor recent changes that we have made to other traffic and parking arrangements in Newington, while investigating further options to address event-related parking issues.

 

This proposal would not result in any loss of parking spaces on these three streets. 

Nurmi Avenue (South of Wenden Avenue), Pearce Avenue (Between Wenden Avenue and Kuts Avenue) and Heidelberg Avenue are relatively narrow and may be better served by adopting a one-way traffic flow. In addition, consultation conducted between April and May 2025 showed that a large proportion of residents living on these three streets were in favour of this approach as a solution for managing event-related parking issues and improving access.

This proposal was expected to remove approximately 103 car parking spaces.
 
Site inspections indicate that residents are generally parking on one side of these streets. The proposed ‘No Parking’ restrictions have been designed to reflect the existing parking arrangements by restricting parking on one side of the street.

‘No Parking’ restrictions

 

It was proposed that, ‘No Parking’ restrictions to be applied for one side of the streets on the southwest of Wing Parade, Newington Boulevard, Egerszegi Avenue and Haslams Creek as detailed below:

 

  • Beaurepaire Avenue – full length, west side
  • Marshall Avenue – north side from Beaurepaire Avenue to Owens Avenue
  • Healy Avenue – north side from Beaurepaire Avenue to Owens Avenue
  • Lane Avenue – south side from Pereira Street to Beaurepaire Avenue
  • Lane Avenue– north side from Pereira Street to Oerter Avenue
  • Oerter Avenue - west side from Lane Avenue to Theile Avenue
  • Joyner Avenue – west side south of Theile Avenue (outside House No. 2 to 10)
  • Spitz Avenue – south of Theile Avenue, east side
  • Tooth Avenue – west side from Theile Avenue to indented parking area
  • Kino Avenue – north side from Tooth Avenue to Spitz Avenue
  • Northam Avenue – north side from Spitz Avenue to Henricks Avenue
  • Henricks Avenue – east side from Rolson Avenue to Northan Avenue
  • Thompson Avenue – west side from Didriksen Avenue to Roycroft
  • Rolson Avenue – north side from Thompson to Henricks Avenue
  • Ottey Avenue – north & west sides (excluding the outer bend) from Newington Boulevard to Perkins Avenue
  • Egerszegi Avenue – east and north sides from Ottey Avenue to Newington Boulevard
  • Didriksen Avenue south side from Henricks Avenue to Spitz Avenue

‘No Stopping’ restrictions

 

It is proposed that, ‘No Stopping’ restrictions to be applied to streets on the southwest of Wing Parade, Newington Boulevard, Egerszegi Avenue and Haslams Creek, as detailed below:

 

  • Intersection of Joyner Avenue and Janet Avenue
  • Inside bend of Owens Avenue and Janet Avenue
  • Intersection of Beaurepaire Avenue, Healy Avenue and Theile Avenue
  • Intersection of Beaurepaire Avenue and Baker Avenue
  • Intersection of Beaurepaire Avenue and Owens Avenue
  • Intersection of Beaurepaire Avenue and Marshall Avenue
  • Intersection of Beaurepaire Avenue and Lane Avenue
  • Intersection of Lane Avenue and Pereira Street
  • Intersection of Baker Avenue and Pereira Street
  • Inside bend of Owens Avenue near Beaurepaire Avenue (review existing 'No Stopping' at the inner bend)
  • Intersection of Owens Avenue and Healy Avenue
  • Intersection of Owens Avenue and Marshall Avenue
  • Intersection of Oerter Avenue and Theile Avenue
  • Bend of Owens Avenue and Baker Avenue (review existing 'No Stopping' on both sides)
  • Inside bend Spitz Avenue and Roycroft Avenue
  • Intersection of Joyner Avenue and Theile Avenue
  • Intersection of Theile Avenue and Perkins Avenue
  • Intersection of Northam Avenue and Spitz Avenue
  • Intersection of Henricks Avenue and Didriksen Avenue
  • Intersection of Thompson Avenue and Didriksen Avenue
  • Intersection of Spitz Avenue and Didriksen Avenue
  • Intersection of Thompson Avenue and Rolson Avenue
  • Intersection of Thompson Avenue and Charelton Avenue
  • Intersection of Thompson Avenue and Roycroft Avenue
  • Intersection of Keino Avenue and Spitz Avenue
  • Intersection of Keino Avenue and Tooth Avenue
  • Intersection of Theile Avenue and Tooth Avenue
  • Intersection of Newington Boulevard and Egerszegi Avenue
  • Intersection of Ottey and Egerszegi Avenue
  • Intersection of Newington Boulevard and Ottey Avenue

 

Note that where restrictions are installed on both sides of the road at intersections and bends, this is only to ensure that a vehicle is able to safely navigate the bends/intersections. The restrictions generally do not extend on both sides beyond the turning area at the intersection/bend to ensure that the parking loss is kept to a minimum and is only what is necessary to ensure safe access.

From 28 July until 25 August 2025, Council sought feedback on a proposal to install ‘No Parking/No Stopping’ restrictions on several narrow streets within a pocket of Newington, located southwest of Wing Parade, Newington Boulevard, and Egerszegi Avenue.

 

Council received 101 responses from 98 participants:

  • 58% were in favour of the proposal
  • 20% partially supported it
  • 22% objected

Based on the feedback, Council have proceeded with installing 'No Parking' and 'No Stopping' restrictions on all streets except Beaurepaire Avenue (where a number of objections were received from residents). Signages were installed in September 2025.

 

Please note that Council Officers will continue to monitor parking conditions on Beaurepaire Avenue during event days.

Following this consultation, at the Rosehill Ward Meeting on Wednesday 13 August 2025 it was agreed to take the following steps in relation to the implementation of further traffic management options such as one-way streets and other possible parking permit schemes.

Regulatory Services and Traffic & Transport Services will:

1. Monitor traffic and parking conditions in Newington on major event days in the next 3 to 6 months.

2. Monitor the impact of the new No Parking and No Stopping restrictions.

3. Use this information to guide future decisions on additional traffic management options (One-way restrictions, Special Event Parking Scheme and Resident Parking Scheme) in early 2026.

A total of 336 responses were received with the following results:

Community's Feedback 

Council's Response

Support level for the ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions proposal.

  • 51% supported
  • 22% objected
  • 24% provided no preference
  • 3% offered alternative suggestions

Council installed ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions in the proposed streets in July 2025 and will continue to review traffic conditions during events following the installation.

 

During the consultation, some residents requested restrictions in narrow streets in other parts of Newington. Accordingly, Council has reviewed these streets and have run additional community engagement for those extra streets in August 2025.

Support levels for the other parking management options.

  • Special Event Parking Scheme = 67%
  • One-Way Streets = 62%
  • Resident Parking Permit Scheme = 48%  

These options will be investigated and considered further following the installation of the ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions.

 

One-way Street proposal was investigated further and community engagement was run in October 2025 for Nurmi Avenue and surround following this result.

Council put forward two types of proposals for community to consider in this round of community engagement.


Part A - Safety related parking restrictions proposal including: 

  • ‘No Parking’ signs proposed on one side of narrow streets heavily impacted by event parking to maintain a minimum 3.5m travel lane.
  • ‘No Stopping’ restrictions proposed at bends, intersections, and near double centreline markings to improve traffic flow and deter illegal parking.
  • For streets that are 5m wide or less, Council will still maintain parking on one side of the street which will leave a carriageway width of approximately 3m. It is noted that emergency vehicles are able to mount the roll top kerbs in this area with ease and therefore, access will not be prevented.
     

Part B - Proposal to introduce one-way streets, special events and resident/visitor parking permitting scheme:

  • Council checked in with the community on other possible parking management solutions, including a Special Event Parking Scheme (SEPS) and a Resident and Visitor Parking Scheme (RVPS). These options were previously consulted on in 2019 but did not proceed due to a lack of strong support. With more frequent events at Sydney Olympic Park now impacting on-street parking, Council is revisiting these ideas. 
  • In addition, Council gauged community support for the introduction of one-way streets.

It was proposed that: ‘No Parking’ restrictions be installed at the streets bounded by Haslams Creek, Wing Parade, Newington Boulevard, Avenue of Oceania, Newington as detailed below:

 

  • West side of Cooper Avenue between Jordan Avenue and Elvstorm Avenue
  • South side of Jordan Avenue between Cooper Avenue and Devitt Avenue
  • North side of Jordan Avenue between Cooper Avenue and Konrads Avenue (private road)
  • West side of Konrads Avenue between Jordan Avenue and O’Neil Avenue
  • Outside House Nos. 2-24 and 31-43 Heidelberg Avenue (excluding bends and intersections as detailed in recommendation 2)
  • East side of Stevenson Avenue between Kuts Avenue and Heidelberg Avenue
  • West side of Lewis Way between Kuts Avenue and Wenden Avenue
  • West side of Kosmala Close between Nurmi Avenue and Wenden Avenue

 

‘No Stopping’ restrictions be installed at the streets bounded by Haslams Creek, Wing Parade, Newington Boulevard, Avenue of Oceania, Newington as detailed below.

 

  • Both sides of Cooper Avenue at the intersection with Elvstorm Avenue
  • Both sides of Cooper Avenue at the intersection with Jordan Avenue
  • Both sides of Jordan Avenue at the intersection with Devitt Avenue
  • Both sides of Jordan Avenue at the intersection with Konrads Avenue
  • South side of Jordan Avenue at the kerb extension outside 11-15 Jordan Avenue (private road)
  • Both sides of Konrads Avenue at the intersection with O’Neil Avenue
  • Both sides of Heidelberg Avenue at the intersection with Kuts Avenue outside property nos. 31 Newington Boulevard and 38 Heidelberg Avenue
  • Both sides of the bend in Heidelberg Avenue at property nos.10-12
  • Both sides of the bend in Heidelberg Avenue at property nos. 26
  • Both sides of Stevens Avenue at the intersection with Heidelberg Avenue
  • Both sides of Stevens Avenue at the intersection with Kuts Avenue
  • Both sides of Lewis Way at the intersection with Kuts Avenue
  • Both sides of Lewis Way at the intersection with Wenden Avenue
  • Both sides of Kosmala Close at the intersection with Wenden Avenue
  • Both sides of Kosmala Close at the intersection with Nurmi Avenue
  • South side of Nurmi Avenue between Newington Boulevard and Kosmala Close (already No Stopping due to BB line)
  • South side of Nurmi Avenue between Kosmala Avenue and 2 Nurmi Avenue (already No Stopping due to BB line)
  • Both sides of Nurmi Avenue at the intersection with Newington Boulevard
  • Inside bend in Nurmi Avenue at property no. 10 outside property
  • Inside bend in Nurmi Avenue at property no. 24
  • Both sides of Ali Parade at the intersection with Newington Boulevard outside property no. 2 Ali Parade
  • Both sides of Ali Parade at the intersection with Newington Boulevard outside property no. 23 Newington Boulevard
  • Both sides of the bend in Ali Parade at property no. 14
  • Both sides of the bend in Ali Parade at property no. 28

 

Note that where restrictions were proposed to be installed on both sides of the road at intersections and bends, this would only be to ensure that a vehicle was able to safely navigate the bends/intersections. The restrictions generally did not extend on both sides beyond the turning area at the intersection/bend to ensure that the parking loss is kept to a minimum and is only what is necessary to ensure safe access.

At the Rosehill Ward Meeting on Wednesday 13 August 2025 it was agreed to take the following steps in relation to the implementation of further traffic management options such as one-way streets and other possible parking permit schemes.

 

Regulatory Services and Traffic & Transport Services will:

1. Monitor traffic and parking conditions in Newington on major event days in the next 3 to 6 months.

2. Allow residents to experience the impact of the new No Parking and No Stopping restrictions.

3. Use this information to guide future decisions on additional traffic management options (One Way restrictions, Special Event Parking Scheme and Resident Parking Scheme) in early 2026.

 

A total of 336 responses were received with the following results:

  • In addition, Council gauged community support for the introduction of one-way streets.

Council proposed to install ‘No Stopping’ restrictions at bends to maintain traffic movements and also at intersections and adjacent to double centreline markings to deter illegal parking.

This proposal was to remove approximately 74 car parking spaces from eight streets including a section of private road (Jordan Avenue) under strata title. 

 

Site inspections indicated that residents were generally parking on one side of these streets. The proposed ‘No Parking’ restrictions were designed to reflect the existing parking arrangements by restricting parking on one side of the street.
