Winter Overnight Parking Restrictions

We thank you for your co-operation in keeping the roads free from parked vehicles during the prohibited times.

Along with the overnight parking restrictions, tickets will be issued as per bylaw 4574-04.T Section 3.2 (a) (xv)

(a) No person shall park any vehicle on any highway:

     (xv) so as to interfere with the clearing of snow from the highway.

It's your responsibility to make sure your parked vehicle is off the roadway before, during or after a snowstorm and between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. to allow for snow clearing and winter road maintenance. 

Our priority is to make sure road treatment and snow removal is safe and efficient.

The program excludes offences for “parking in a fire route,” “parking in an accessible parking space” and “obstructing an accessible parking space”.

How it Works

The Town is introducing Occasional Use on Street Parking Permits (OUPP) where residents or visitors can apply online for up to 12 free parking passes per vehicle each year through GTECHNA’s web portal. The OUPP would assist residents who require an extra parking space for overnight visitors or require an extra space. This will allow residents and visitors of the Town to apply for, and receive, a parking exemption for the prohibitions of parking longer than 24 hours and parking between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m.

• 12 permits a year, per license plate.
• Permits are valid for 24 hours.
• Permits are free and available 24/7 online.
• Multiple day and plate permits can be issued at once for user convenience until maximum is reached.
• Permits are issued electronically and are automatically attached to the license plate - no print and display required.
• Permits will not be valid or issued during active snow events, which would include the day(s) before, during, or after a major event, when plowing or salting are taking place.

The permit is not an exemption from the remaining provisions within the By-law:

• No parking within 3 meters of a fire hydrant
• No parking within 1 meter of a driveway
• No parking within 15 meters of an intersection
• No parking in a fire route
• No parking left wheels to curb, park/stop contrary to sign, etc.

Issued permits are null and void in the event of inclement weather and/or the deployment of snow clearing/salting measures.

Please note: Tickets will NOT be cancelled if an error is made when entering your licence plate and/or Province/State information.

Restrictions

• Permits will not be valid if attached to commercial vehicle or to a tow truck.
• All vehicles must have a valid licence plates belonging to the vehicle it is attached to.
• Permits will be revoked during an active snow event.
