Parking at Smyrna

Parking, no matter where you live or visit, when it comes to residential areas, is always an issue.

We are situated in a residential areas, therefore, we mist be mindful of our neighbours at all times. Parking is first come, first served, must be in appropriate / lawful parking areas and owners of vehicles must be mindful of the residents at all times.

Residential car park:
There is a residential car park to the south of the building. This is adjacent to the side / accessible entrance. When using this car park, please park in designated bays only and practice considerate parking. Do not block in other vehicles in, even it is for a moment, you will be asked to move.

Please take a moment to review the map shown here.

The yellow hatched area by the ramp / side entrance to Smyrna must be kept clear at all times as this is a fire exit, an accessible entrance for those that need it to be and an easy entry for everyone. The front steps can be a bit of a challenge, even for able-bodies people.

The red hatched area you can see must be kept clear at all times. Parking is not permitted in these areas.
