Getting there
Driving in to come to UQ CCR
Private carpark usage
Parking around Herston is extremely limited. The Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital has three privately-run carparks. However, they can be expensive.
We suggest parking at the Cornerstone Carpark - 'Herston Road Carpark (RBWH)', with access from Herston Road or Gilchrist Avenue.
Street parking
Alternatively, find street parking with the CellOPark app system (pay by the hour). Parks are available on Herston road.
Nearby suburban streets offer some short-term parking options. However, they are regularly patrolled by parking inspectors.
Because car spaces are limited, we strongly encourage using public transport where possible.
