Between May 1 and October 31, overnight street parking is available on any street where no parking restrictions exist, except for the downtown where overnight street parking is prohibited year-round

Downtown parking

There are over 250 downtown parking spots. The limit for on-street parking in the downtown is 3 hours. Extended duration parking is available at one of the 3 municipal lots: Water Street North, Jones Street East. and the lot on the north side of Elgin Street East across from Canadian Tire (enter from Water Street or Wellington Street).

On-street accessible parking spaces can be identified by the blue curbing and accessible parking signs. Please ensure you display your permit when parking in these locations.
