Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the City's first year of its waterfront parking program! You shared - and we listened!
The City’s waterfront parking program returns for its second season following review and feedback by staff, Council, businesses, and community members.
The program was first introduced in 2022 in an effort to mitigate parking issues at popular Pickering waterfront destinations as they continue to welcome visitors from throughout the region, and beyond.
The program is active from May 1 to October 1 annually and includes paid parking at all City waterfront parking lots, and restricted/paid parking on select waterfront-area streets. Pickering residents can apply for a no-charge permit to allow them free parking for paid parking zones.
On March 27, 2023, Council adopted a number of recommended changes for this year’s program. A full list, along with program details, can be found online at pickering.ca/WaterfrontParking(External link).
New program changes:
Pickering residents can obtain a no-charge seasonal permit, valid for two seasons (previously valid for only one season at a time).
A digital guest pass system is being implemented for residents of waterfront streets. Information will be available in June and shared directly with residents that are eligible for these permits.
Reducing the waterfront permit parking hourly rate from $5.00 to $2.50 per hour, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
In addition to the two-hour free parking granted in the Liverpool Road lay-by spaces, two-hour free parking will be provided Monday to Friday, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, within all other waterfront permit parking areas (excluding Beachpoint Promenade, Front Street and the municipally-operated waterfront parking lots).
Senior (65 years and older) non-residents may obtain a free seasonal parking permit.
Installation of free Wi-Fi hubs at the three municipal parking lots to improve access for those that do not have a cellular data plan.
Additional on-site signage in affected waterfront areas.
