General administrative procedures

 

Parking

The privilege of parking cars on the Main Site during the working day is restricted to authorised assistant staff, whose places are allotted individually on an order of application basis, and academic/academic related staff who have been issued with permits to park on a first come, first served basis. Persons who believe they qualify for a parking space may apply on form "Application Parking Permit" available from the Security Administrator, Roz Conyngham.

There is no provision during working days for parking by family members or by anyone who does not have business in the Department.

The Facilities Manager, as part of his duties, is responsible to the Secretary of Department (Finance) for overseeing parking, but the working of the system is largely dependent on goodwill and lack of selfishness among users. Wheel clamps will be applied to cars not parked in accordance with regulations.

Visitor Car Parking

Visitor car parking spaces must be booked at reception in advance by a member of academic staff. To avoid embarrassment to visitors it is important to ensure that visitors are aware of how many spaces have been booked for them. Visitors' parking can only be booked in the designated visitor spaces. Reception staff members are not authorised to make other spaces available for this purpose. Visitors cannot book spaces for themselves; a member of the Department must make the request.
