Cairns Regional Council charges $2.40 an hour at its on-street meters and in most of its paid car parks, and the biggest of them, Hartley Street, has 450 spaces and a daily cap of $6. Four council car parks are free at all times, and most paid ones are free after 5pm on weekdays and all weekend. Cairns is in Queensland and stays on Brisbane time all year (AEST, UTC+10), so every hour below is local time with no daylight-saving change.
