New parking strategy being implemented to relieve congestion in downtown core

NEWS RELEASE - Distributed November 17, 2016 11:00 AM

Summary

The City of Nanaimo will be installing multi-space pay parking machines on downtown streets over the next ten days. These machines will replace the single space meters currently on street in the downtown as well as converting the current two hour free areas to pay parking. The machines, similar to the type used in the off street lots, will have the user enter their licence plate numbers to initiate a parking session.

The current practice of offering free parking in the evenings and weekends for on street parking will be continued.

Link to Strategic Plan: Providing an up to date parking system will improve the functionality of our downtown streets.
