Parking
The City of Brockville operates a number of municipal parking lots, and sets the regulations for street parking, downtown complimentary parking, and oversees enforcement of the parking bylaw through Parking Bylaw Enforcement Officers.
Municipal Parking Lots
There are ten parking lots located in downtown Brockville. The City operates seven Municipal Parking Lots for vehicle parking, and one dedicated boat trailer parking lot. Monthly permits are available at most municipal lots and can be purchased at City Hall during regular business hours. Hourly parking can be purchased from the pay machine in each lot at a rate of $1.50 per hour.
Parking Permits
Parking passes are available at the downtown parking lots of George Street, Buell Street, Home Street, and John Street for the following duration and fee:
- One Month: $57.20
- Three Months: $171.60
- Six Months: $343.20

- Daily rate, until 11:00 pm: $10
- Overnight: $22
- Season parking: $275
Parking on the Street
Street parking outside of the Downtown core is permitted for a maximum of 3 hours only.
Downtown Parking
Downtown Brockville offers 2 hour complimentary parking on designated streets, and metered parking on the remainder of the streets at the cost of $1.00 per hour. Parking meters only accept quarters, loonies and toonies. A good guide is “if you see a meter, feed a meter.”
If you are going to be longer than 2 hours, please use the parking lots and not the two hour complimentary parking as parking over 2 hours is subject to a $20.00 fine. Please be advised that all other streets in Brockville allow for maximum 3 hour parking only.
Parking Meters:
Hourly rates for street parking where there are meters can be purchased at the following rates:
- Street Meter Fees: $1 per hour
- Meter Bag Rentals: $12 per day
Parking in Residential Areas
Parking on residential streets or highways is limited to a period 3 hours between the hours of 7:00 am and 11:00 pm. If a vehicle is removed it cannot be parked within 300 metres from the point at which it was first parked within 1 hour from the time of its removal.
Winter Parking Restrictions: Overnight Parking
Like many other communities, the City of Brockville has parking restrictions in place during the winter season. These restrictions are necessary in order to ensure snow clearing activities can be completed in a safe and effective manner. In recent years, the City has modified the winter parking restrictions in order to provide more flexibility to motorists whenever weather conditions permit. Click here for more information about the City’s Winter operations and Snow and Ice Control.
In effect from November 1st (or the first significant snowfall) through March 31st, parking is prohibited on City streets between the hours of 2:00 am and 7:00 am.
When necessary, the Public Works division will provide notice that the parking prohibition time will be extended until 11:00 pm on the evenings that snow clearing operations will taking place. The City will inform the public by 6:00 pm each evening that the operation is to take place. During winter months, updates on conditions will be posted as a news item and announced for those who subscribe to https://brockville.com/announcements or check the news bar on our homepage for news on current parking restrictions.
