What is park regulation? 

Park regulation is designed to support the safety and enjoyment of all park visitors by guiding how they can use the parks and what behaviour is expected. 

Regulation guides a range of activities and uses such as traffic management and parking, events and commercial activities, noise, waste disposal, alcohol-free zones, horse riding and animal management, camping, protection of park assets including flora and fauna, cycling and other recreational activities. 

The proposed updates to the regulation will ensure: 

• park regulations are in line with best practice park management 
• continued safety of park visitors
• compliance with government regulation 
• equitable use and sharing of the park
• enforcement of regulation is consistent across the Greater Sydney Parklands estate
• protection for park assets including natural and cultural heritage 
• prevention of unauthorised or anti-social behaviour.
