In parts of the Downtown, the Waterfront and North Plymouth, it is necessary to pay for parking Monday through Saturday from 9am to 7pm and Sunday from 12pm to 7pm, including Holidays. Outside of these core areas, there is no charge for parking and there are no posted time limits for un-metered street parking outside of these areas.

Plymouth (Downtown and Waterfront)

Downtown On-Street Parking:

· Un-metered parking with a 2-hour limit is available along portions of Main Street Extension, Summer Street, Main Street and Court Street.

· Un-metered parking with much shorter time limits is available in some locations in the Downtown as a convenience for customers needing to park for a few minutes in busy locations.

· Metered on-street parking with a 4-hour limit is available along Middle Street, Carver Street, North Street, South Russell Street, North Russell Street and Brewster Street. The rate is $.50 per hour (U.S. money only). The meters accept nickels, dimes, quarters, half-dollars or dollar coins. You can pay for partial hours, and you can pay for up to 4 hours at a time.

NOTE: If you park in an un-metered location for longer than the specified time limit, you must move your vehicle. If a parking officer notes that your vehicle has been parked in a particular space for longer than the posted time limit, your vehicle will be ticketed. The only exception is a vehicle with a handicap permit.

NOTE: If you are parked at a metered location and the meter has expired, your vehicle will be ticketed unless you have a Downtown Resident permit or a handicap permit.

· Some lots offer parking at coin operated meters. The meters accept nickels, dimes, quarters or dollar coins. You can pay for partial hours, and you can pay for up to 10 hours at a time.

· Some lots offer parking at Pay and Display machines. These machines accept nickels, dimes, quarters or dollar coins as well as $1, $5 or $10 bills (credit or debit cards are not accepted at this time), and you pay for time in 1/2-hour units or for the maximum amount of time. Receipts from any Pay and Display machine may be used for parking in any Pay and Display lot. Receipts may NOT be used to pay for parking at a meter on a street or at a meter in a lot. The receipt dispensed by a machine must be placed face-up on the dashboard in your vehicle where it is visible.

In the lot with coin operated meters, and only in this lot, instead of having to put money into a meter, a receipt from the Pay and Display machine may be displayed on your dashboard. However, vehicles with permits that provide for free parking in only Pay and Display lots must pay if they park at the coin operated meters in this lot.
