Parking Review 2009
- Mt Cook mobilised

There are 644 off-street parks, leaving 604 car owners to park in the 938 Residents or Coupon parks. In Mt Cook there are 726 residents or coupon excemption permits currently issued. On the face of it, all this seems fine. Are you having trouble parking in your street?

Highlights include spectacular views of the gorge and a couple of spooky tunnels to explore.
