Is it that place hidden in the dark that you access from Wellesley St?

Yep, thats where I park. Was asking about the place just around the corner from that, on the edge of the staff car park.

Oh yeah yeah! I think I know it. Walking to the compsci labs I see a few bikes parked out there.

ah yes, the one you access by going round the side... personally since you have to get there from princes street I just use cp36.

Still, gsx accross ftw

Well it's pretty much directly under where the lab where I live currently, so nice and convenient. Apparently the trick is not to park at the very edge, because one of the guys had his scooter coated in peach schnapps and then later vomited on...

Does anyone know about motorcycle parkings in the Auckland uni Grafton (Medical campus)?

Parked my bike yesterday next to the front entrance, about 1-2 meters away from the pushbike rack (didn't want to park near there cuz it will block the spaces for pushbikes).

So when I get home I got this orange sticker on my seat, it basically says that I need to park my "cycle" next to the cycle stand otherwise they will lock it up...etc

So just wondering if I can just park my "cycle" next to the pushbike rack. If I can then sweet but would be silly cuz I will be blocking most of it Tried ringing the uni parking warden this morning but no one seems to ever be there.

any idea?

I believe theres a dedicated motorcycle park up at Grafton, will try to trawl through my emails this evening for details

Regarding to the Grafton carpark:

Called Rob the parking warden today- can't park motorbike around push bike stand...

There is actually a motorbike parking space inside Auckland Hospital (at the end of a on ramp) , which is not university property but can be used by members of public. Gonna go and check it out tomorrow!

There used to be motorcycle parking in the carpark at the front of the building with the cafe in it, however that is now gone (replaced currently by a large hole in the ground).

The motorcycle park at the hospital is next to the old hospital building front entrance, in the space where the brick building was demolished a year or so ago. Go up the ramp to your right as you turn in from Park Avenue. It's fairly full most of the time however.

thats the one!

There are a number of signed motorcycle park areas at Auckland Hospital.

The one to the right as you enter from from Park Road (opposite where the Wallace block used to be until barbarians struck); another one smaller but usually has vacant space , enter from Grafton road , the first hospital entrance going down the hill, ride around a little and it's on the right just by the "back door", opposite the other carpark building entrance.

Another one (mainly used by scooters it's probably a bit tight for a big bike, past the main entrance , bear down the hill (internal road) a bit and its on the left, off the road a bit.

Basically just ride around and see where there are bikes parked.

And in the lower carpark itself there are bike spaces allocated (maybe in the top one too, don't know).
And , if you find an out of the way niche , that does NOT ahve a "no parking" or "No motorcycles" sign, they don't seem to mind.

That'd be right, theres still a couple of dicks coming in from symonds st and parking in the way...

[Folcan]

I doubt anything will happen. but the guy was also saying that he will speak to management or something about marking out more parks or something.. yea right haha

[jono035]

That change is a bit of a bastard, means I've got to park in that dark little hole again which means either a U-turn or illegal right hand turn out onto symonds street to get home... Bah.
