This number jumped dramatically from the previous year's effort of just $1.6 million.
While we've seen a massive spike in infringements over the past year despite the three-month freeze, it has also been revealed which streets have copped the most fines.
Lake Street copped the most infringements over the past year with a whopping 7608 fines issued, adding up to $483,944.
Grafton Street wasn't too far behind with 6322 fines issued, adding up to $391,833, Abbott Street was third with 5355 fines adding up to $342,260 while Sheridan Street received 4825 infringements worth $307,165 and McLeod Street saw 3576 fines worth $223,792.
These five streets alone contributed $1.7 million towards the overall annual revenue.
Adding to the spike in infringements is the increased fines for staying in a park too long or failing to pay and display tickets which has now risen from $48. back in 2017 to $63 in 2021.
