Paid Parking Options

There are two options to pay for parking - pay stations or PayByPhone. When parking, look for signs indicating parking restrictions in that area. Payment for parking in City spaces is not required after 6 p.m. on weekdays or during weekends. You do not need a mobile phone to pay for parking – pay stations are available and accept debit (via tap). StJohns.ca/PaidParking
