THE car park at 490 Nepean Highway has reopened after upgrade works. The car park offers two free hours of parking, and contains 49 spaces. Frankston Council hopes that the reopening will help nearby businesses.

Frankston deputy mayor Steffie Conroy said “the growth in new businesses along Playne Street, Wells Street and Nepean Highway means more and more people are choosing to spend time in our city centre. The upgraded Frankston House car park supports that growth, giving locals and visitors the opportunity to spend more time enjoying everything our city now has to offer.”

Cr Nathan Butler said “strategically located car parks are helping to ease congestion, support local business, and encourage people to spend more time in Frankston. “This reopening marks another step forward as Frankston evolves into a connected, vibrant metropolitan city. From upgrades to public transport links to revitalising iconic sites, like the Frankston Yacht Club and Comfort Station, we’re building a city people are proud to call home.”

The reopened facility is located on the corner of Playne Street and Nepean Highway underneath the recently opened Moon Dog Brewery.
