Parking in Milton

Parking Milton

Parking is an issue that is felt in the majority of Australian cities. When it comes to parking Brisbane residents really suffer in terms of accessing safe, affordable and conveniently located parking.

Unfortunately, the bustling commercial suburb of Milton is no exception to this.

Parking: The Challenges

Since Milton is filled with commercial office parks, warehouses and retail outlets, it makes sense that many people choose to not only live in Milton, but to work there too. In saying this, many residents do choose to commute to the nearby Brisbane CBD via the Milton Railway Station.

Either way, members of the workforce are challenged by the lack of parking Milton has. Here are a few of the problems they face:

• Being consistently late for work, thanks to wasting time looking for a free parking space in a convenient location
• Drivers are forced to pay exorbitant parking fees, because they can’t risk NOT finding a safe space
• Commuters don’t feel comfortable parking their vehicle on the street near Milton Railway Station and end up leaving their vehicle at home
• Arriving at work hot, sweaty and tired because you couldn’t find parking close enough to your office & had to walk the rest of the way

Say goodbye to the days of finding yourself in any of the above-mentioned scenarios by saying hello to Parkhound. Parkhound is the online parking marketplace you never knew you needed. By using a Parkhound listed space you’ll:

How Much Does a Parkhound Parking Space Cost?

One of the main reasons why over 100,000 Australians have turned to Parkhound to solve their parking problems is the cost. Parkhound listed parking spaces can cost up to 50% less than the spaces offered by traditional vendors. Here’s how parking spaces are determined on the platform:
Location
The parking Milton residents have is spread out all across the suburb. Parking spaces near prime locations such as the Suncorp Stadium and Milton Courts will be more expensive than others. The neighbouring suburbs of Paddington and Auchenflower are also in ideal locations, close to the city and to major train stations.
Type
There are many different types of parking Milton residents have available for you and the type you select will affect the price. From garages to private carports and driveways, to a shaded spot in someone’s garden—there’s a parking space for everyone’s needs AND everyone’s budget.
Access
Parking spaces that offer access devices are more expensive than those that do not. Access devices range from ticketing systems to locked gates and swipe cards to passcodes. The general rule of thumb is that the more impressive the access device, the more expensive the fees will be.
Amenities
The more amenities a parking spot has, the more it will cost. The basic amenities such as shelter, lighting and security gates don’t impact the overall cost. But additional amenities such as CCTV cameras, electric charging, security patrols and car wash facilities will up the cost.
