Lime it. Park it. Check it.
How do I know where to park in Sydney?
Depending on where you end your trip in Sydney, you’ll either need to park your Lime in a parking bay, bike rack or neatly to the side of the footpath.
The good news is, all this is shown in our app - no sweat. If your final destination is an area that requires you to park in a bay, you’ll see the nearest parking spots on our map - just look out for the P icons. Easy.
How to park in a P bay
In certain areas parking bays are mandatory.
These locations will be shown via our app with a P when you end your ride. No need to plan ahead - just make sure you park like a pro.
Guidelines:
Both wheels are inside the markings
Park in line/parallel with other vehicles
If the bay is too full or there’s no room, Lime to a different bay

If it’s too full or there’s no room, Lime to another rack
How to park in areas with no P
When parking your Lime, you should always be considerate of other footpath users.
Guidelines:
Close to the edge of the footpath or space, with the kickstand away from the road
Park in line with lampposts, bins, trees, etc.
