Australian Standard 2890 is the nation’s playbook for parking, so your car park doesn’t turn into a low-speed demolition derby. It’s a multi-part series covering design and layout for cars (AS/NZS 2890.1), commercial vehicles (2890.2), bicycles (2890.3), on-street parking (2890.5), and accessible parking (2890.6), among others. Engineers and councils rely on it for bay dimensions, ramp treatments, aisle widths, clearances, signage and pedestrian safety—basically the bits that keep bumpers uncrumpled. If you’re building or auditing a facility, you’ll need the current edition from Standards Australia and the right part for your use case; guessing is not a design methodology. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
