The Heathcote resident works at Bendigo Bank and was keen to test out the new CBD parking.
The five-level building opened at 7am yesterday and includes 100 reserved car parks, 320 short-term bays, 40 secure bicycle parks and 52 security cameras. Parking is free for 90 minutes a day.
Ms Hill parked on level one of the multistorey car park yesterday about 7.40am.
“I thought I’d give it a go,” she said. “It’s convenient.”
The car park’s second and third customers arrived just before 8am.
Coates Hire account manager Steve MacCullum drove into the car park just to have a sticky beak.
“It’s good to see it finished,” he said. “It will be good for Bendigo.”
