The Town of Oakville is excited to reopen our doors as soon as we can safely do so. All public health guidelines remain in effect.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the town has implemented a temporary program to allow residents who reside south of Dundas Street, to purchase temporary on-street parking permits. This will allow residents to park their vehicles on the street, near their home for longer than three hours, or between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. It does not allow the vehicle to be parked against any other parking by-laws.
This permit is available to residents south of Dundas Street. Refer to the map to see which areas are eligible for this permit. The map will be updated within the next few days to reflect additional areas in Oakville where paid temporary on-street permits are available
Permits are available as follows:
$5 per day
$50 per 30 day period
