Parking and Public Transport
Staff and Students
All staff attending Robina Campus must register their vehicle using this form. Registering your vehicle with TAFE Queensland entitles you to park in an available TAFE designated car space. The car park is operated by CarePark. Fines will be issued to vehicles that are parked in non TAFE Queensland spots or where the vehicle has not been registered.
NOTE: When registering using the linked form, please allow 2 working days for the surveillance system to be updated. In that time you should use the EasyPark app as per visitors instructions below.
Please remember though that even if you have registered your vehicle with TAFE Queensland, this only entitles you to park in a TAFE designated car space.
Campus Visitors
Download the EasyPark app in advance to register your vehicle on arrival at campus. Follow the EasyPark instructions. In the unlikely event that the app is not working, visitors should report the fault immediately on arrival to the Security Team.
Visitors, staff and students must park in the dedicated TAFE Queensland car spaces which have the TAFE logo on the ground. Parking anywhere else risks a fine.
There is a second lower level carpark with TAFE Queensland allocated car spaces. The driveway to this area is accessible from the ground level carpark and is on the opposite side of the building to the lifts.
