Council regulates parking within Ipswich through its local laws and state legislation to improve safety and convenience for our community and visitors to our city. The Transport Operations (Road Use Management - Road Rules) Regulation 2009 and Local Law No.5 (Parking) 2013 govern our city and include specific restrictions for the parking of vehicles. Failure to comply with these parking regulations may result in penalties through the issue of notices and fines by council.
