Parking in downtown Halifax and Dartmouth will be different today.
You’ll notice there are no more meters to drop your change in, just look for the posted signage to find the new pay stations.
The new signs indicate parking zones, and drivers will then either need to find the nearest pay station, or use the HotSpot app.
The maximum time allowed in any one parking zone will be four hours — an increase from parking meters, which had limits of 60 or 90 minutes.
Parking rates could be as high as $16 for four hours in some zones.
These new parking changes are the result of a directive from Halifax Regional Council, which has been in the planning stages for close to 10 years.
