Parking
Paid temporary on-street parking permits
In response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and concerns around parking availability, the town is implementing a paid temporary on-street parking permit program for residences south of Dundas Street. Please visit the parking permits page for more information.
Increased fines around popular parks
From May 15 to September 15, 2021, No Parking signs and increased fines will be implemented around popular parks to help reduce overcrowding, traffic congestion and illegal parking in these areas which can impact neighbourhood safety and access for emergency service vehicles.

Special projects
Parking in Bronte Village
Beginning in June 2019, the town launched a two-year pilot paid parking program in Bronte Village’s commercial shopping district. The program will address concerns from Bronte businesses and residents about the availability of parking in the area.
Learn more by visiting the Parking in Bronte Village page.
Private parking lots
