CellOPark
UOW has partnered with CellOPark to offer a digital payment method for casual parking at the Wollongong campus. With CellOPark, you only pay for what you use and start and stop your parking in the app.
Casual parking is available 8:30am to 6:30pm, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) in:
- P8 Carpark in signposted bays
- P5 Carpark North in signposted bays (northern section across the bridge)
- P4 Carpark
- P3 Carpark in signposted bays
- P1 Carpark - in designated bays
From 4pm to 6:30pm, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays), casual parking is available in:
- P2 Carpark
- P5 Carpark South (southern section, adjacent to Ring Road)
In these zones, a valid ticket or permit must be displayed, or you must have an active session with CellOPark. The University uses Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) technology to confirm that a vehicle has a valid parking session or permit. Parking Enforcement Officers will also check if a valid ticket has been displayed.
It is critical that you enter your number plate correctly into the CellOPark app. If your vehicle registration number is incorrect it will not be recognised by UOW Security and you may be issued a parking fine.
Zone numbers are displayed within each carpark. You can either select the zone number within the app, scan the QR code or enter the number manually.
