Red Bay Staff Parking

Red Permits

Red permit applications for 2025 closed on Friday 7th February. All red bays that were not sold in the February allocation process, are now available for sale on a first come first served basis

Process of allocating Red bays

After the closing date any un-issued Red Bays will be sold on a first come first served basis & allocated in accordance with the UNE Parking Policy If you're still thinking of applying for a red bay after the closing date, it would be best to first check with Parking Administration to see what red bays are available & where they are located prior to submitting an application. Parking Administration can be contacted on 6773 3485 or by emailing parking@une.edu.au

Red bays will be first offered and allocated to staff that hold the position of Director / Head of School or above. Any Red bays that have not been allocated to Directors / Head of School or above will be allocated to eligible staff and/or students by Parking Administration.

NB: where multiple applications for a single bay are received a ballot will be conducted to determine the successful applicant. All applicants will be advised of the outcome of their application within one (1) week of the closing date. Those applicants who have been successful in having a red bay allocated to them can, once advised, then pay for their virtual red parking permit from their personal parking account.

PLEASE NOTE - once you have been assigned your red bay you have 14 days to pay for your permit. If payment is not received in the allocated time frame then the bay will become available for sale again.

All decisions regarding the allocation of red parking bays is final.

The University offers a Salary Sacrifice arrangement for Red permits only. This arrangement allows for the full cost of the permit to be deducted from an individual's pay as a pre-tax (salary sacrifice) deduction. Those staff who are successful in obtaining a Red Permit can choose the Salary Sacrifice payment option. Please contact Parking Administration for details.
