West Gate Tunnel

The City of Melbourne has been working closely with the Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) ahead of the opening of the West Gate Tunnel later this year.

Before the tunnel opens, we've worked with DTP to roll out a range of interim measures in local streets across North and West Melbourne to help ensure these neighbourhoods aren't used as shortcuts by motorists.

You can find more detail about these changes at Transport Amenity Program External link.

Better parking in your neighbourhood

Parking improvements

We’re delivering our Parking and Kerbside Management Plan. That means we’re reviewing and revising the parking in all neighbourhoods across the City of Melbourne to make parking simpler and fairer. Improvements include cheaper rates for off-peak times and free parking for short stops under 15 minutes with the EasyPark app.
