Disabled
Persons’ Parking Permits can be obtained through any
Registration and
Licensing Division of Transport SA
The Australian disability parking scheme (ADPS) is a new national scheme that supports:
- consistent eligibility criteria
- standards for parking permit concessions
- consistent parking permit design.
The first phase of the scheme is to replace existing South Australian disabled person's parking permit with the new Australian disability parking permit. New applications that are approved will then continue to be issued with the new permit.

Temporary Disabled Permits will only be issued for a period of no longer than 3 months. Staff with a long term disability must apply for a Disabled Persons’ Parking Permits through any Registration and Licensing Division of Transport SA.
If you have any questions regarding Disabled parking please contact your local FM Assist office.
PLEASE NOTE: Both the University Parking Permit and the Registration and Licensing Division Disabled Persons’ Parking Permit must be clearly displayed at all times when you are parked on University grounds.
