radiancecruiser Posted January 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Can anyone suggest where the best place would be to park for our family to drop us off at the OPT in Sydney? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazzaw Posted January 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Are you wanting them to "park" or just "drop you off"??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizza Posted January 13, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I'd actually like to know where the best place to be dropped off is? I don't think regular cars are able to drive right up to the front there are they? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just let the person on the security gate know you are picking up/dropping off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonlight_path Posted January 13, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 13, 2014 I don't think regular cars are able to drive right up to the front there are they? :confused: Yes they are. You drive down Hickson Rd and turn into the dock area. There's a boom gate & a little man...you just tell him you're dropping someone off and he'll wave you through. You then proceed down the road, along in front of the OPT, around the roundabout and back to the kerb where they will show you where to park. Eject your cruiser and you're off! Really easy. Same with picking up. Just get your cruiser to text you when they're kerbside. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbenjo Posted January 13, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 13, 2014 If you happen to sailing on a Saturday or Sunday there is all day parking at the Opera House parking station for $15 a day as long as you leave before 5pm. No good during the week though.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of buses and tour operators also need access as well as delivery trucks all using he same tiny piece of roadway. You can get lucky and park in the metered area of Hickson rd just behind the Waterfront restaurants..but only for a few hours, so it will have to be a quick cruise!
