Wellington City Council planned to increase central city parking earlier in May.
A proposal to increase parking costs in central Wellington will put the city on-par with Auckland’s Queen St and make it dearer than parts of Manhattan or central London. The Wellington City Council proposal, to increase central city parking to $5 an hour, will be open to public consultation this week. The bulk of the central city will see a parking fee increase of 50 cents an hour – mostly to $5 but city fringe areas such as the area south of Vivian St or Cambridge Tce will rise to $3 or $4.

David and Robyn Clareburt are concerned about Wellington City Council s proposal to increase hourly parking rates from $2.50 to $4.50.
Capital business owners are incensed at a Wellington City Council proposal to almost double weekend parking rates, saying the “crazy” idea will make the city “lose its sparkle”. With many central city restaurants and shops struggling to emerge from the shadow of Covid-19, the plan to sharply increase parking fees could be the “last straw,” say some struggling business owners. “The council should be encouraging people to come into the city to support local businesses,” said Hamish Vance, the co-owner of Vance Vivian Menswear, which has been on Lambton Quay for 21 years. “To raise the parking fee in today’s environment, I think is crazy.”
