The City is considering adjustments to parking regulations in Hitchcock Ave, Barwon Heads and values your input in shaping these changes.

The proposed modifications would introduce a 2 hour time limit to parking on either the east side of the road, or on both sides of the road, between Colite Street and Ozone Road, in accordance with the image below. This is intended to help improve parking availability and encourage turnover for visitors to the nearby businesses.

Residents impacted by the new restrictions may be able to apply for two all-day parking permits, free of charge. Please check your eligibility by visiting Parking permits conditions - Residential - City of Greater Geelong, as some restrictions do apply.
