More than 422,000 free 2P parking sessions have been used by residents and visitors in central Geelong since the initiative started.
Drivers just need to follow three easy steps to get two hours of free parking in central Geelong:
- Find a 2P parking bay.
- Start a free session on the meter or via the EasyPark app.
- Leave the bay when your time is up.
To support the community to take full advantage of this free scheme, we have a new map of central Geelong that shows where all 1,000 2P bays can be found.
Each vehicle is eligible to one free two-hour parking session per day.

The free initiative has been in place for nearly five months.It is fantastic to see in our data that from 14 July until the end of November, residents and visitors had used 422,388 free 2P parking sessions while visiting central Geelong.
However, more people could be making the most of this free initiative as they shop for Christmas presents, dine, run errands, meet with friends or visit a gallery or the Floating Christmas Tree.
Don't forget, 'Find 2P and park free' when you're in central Geelong.
Councillor Andrew Katos
Drivers are eligible for two hours free parking in 2P zones, not in 15-minute, 1P, 4P or all-day bays.Check out our handy new map that highlights where to find the thousand 2P bays in central Geelong.
Once you find a 2P bay, you won't be charged for parking when you start a session at the meter or on the EasyPark app.
Keep in mind that parking across the region is free in the evenings and on weekends, however time limits still apply.
