St. John's announces winter parking bans

Starting on January 3 and ending at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 11, there will be an overnight parking ban in St. John's.

A parking ban is in place daily between 4 to 6 a.m. on Water Street (from Waldegrave Street to Prescott Street) and Duckworth Street (from New Gower Street to Cochrane Street).

The overnight winter parking ban for streets outside the downtown area is in place daily between 12:30 and 7:30 a.m.

From December 1 to March 31, parking is prohibited 24-hours a day on streets designated as ‘No Parking Route.’ All impacted streets have signage in place. These bans are in place so ice control and snow clearing equipment can safely service the streets. Enforcement is 24 hours a day regardless of snow and street conditions.

The Weather-Related Parking Ban will be implemented on roads outside the downtown area during or following adverse weather events. Once declared, the ban will be in place for 24-hours a day until it is lifted.

Throughout the winter, parking restrictions will take place in the designated downtown area to facilitate snow removal. Parking will be banned from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. on the streets that are scheduled for snow removal.
