The City of Peterborough’s winter parking restrictions are now in effect.

Parking is prohibited on all city streets from 2 a.m to 6 a.m. every night from Dec. 1 to April 1, 2023. The fine for a parking violation is $25.

The city notes that when snow-clearing operations are taking place, no parking or stopping of a vehicle is permitted on any city street. Snow clearing usually occurs between midnight and 8 a.m.

During snowstorms, a public service announcement will be made to advise that vehicles must be removed from city streets throughout the day or evening. Free overnight parking is available in municipal parking garages and surface lots during storms. The city says drivers can use the parking garage entrance ticket for a free ride home on Peterborough Transit.
