Parking at ECU is divided into clearly identified zones for staff, students and visitors, outlined on our campus maps.
Parking permits are required to park in all ECU parking zones between business hours (7.00am - 5.00pm weekdays). With the exception of ACROD areas, no permits are required for parking after hours, with staff and students encouraged to park as close as possible to buildings to aid personal safety whilst on campus.
ACROD permit holders are not required to pay for parking at ECU when they park in an ACROD bay (so do not need an ECU permit). If ACROD parking is full, ACROD holders are advised to pay and park in the visitor parking area.
ECU has 91 dedicated Athena SWAN parking bays for staff and students with parenting drop-off responsibilities and/or carer responsibilities. Bays are clearly marked in purple with signage that shows the ECU and Athena SWAN member logo.

Temporary permits are available to current ECU student and staff permit holders, free of charge, if your normal vehicle is not available. The temporary parking permit request is an online facility which generates a temporary permit for you.
A temporary permit (valid for up to five days) can only be issued to current permit holders, and valid for the zone allocated to the original permit. This permit needs to be clearly displayed on the dashboard of your vehicle.
