Consultation closed

We understand that car parking options are a key concern for the community. To ensure that any proposed operational hours and fees met both short‑term and future needs, Council sought feedback from local businesses.

If Council were to increase the opening hours of the Gosford City Car Park, it is important that the changes occur at an affordable price point and can accommodate everyone.

Community feedback was encouraged on the future operating hours and fees associated with potential extended trading hours of the Gosford City Car Park. This feedback will be used to inform Council’s decision-making process.
