Greensboro to Remove Downtown Parking Meters, Move to App-Only Payments
Summary
The city will remove meters at three downtown surface lots this weekend and require payment via the ParkMobile app; parking in those lots will remain free after 5 p.m., the city said in its weekly flash briefing.
The City of Greensboro will remove parking meters from three downtown surface lots starting this weekend and transition payment to the ParkMobile app, Rosemary Plybon said during the city’s weekly flash briefing.
Plybon identified the lots as the Washington Federal lot next to the police department, the city/county lot beside the Melvin Municipal Office Building and the depot lot at Washington and Davie Street. Drivers who use those lots will need to pay with the ParkMobile app; the briefing also noted that parking in those surface lots is free after 5 p.m.
The city directed listeners to its website for more information on downtown parking and the app. Plybon said crews will begin removing meters this weekend and that parking operations for those surface lots will be managed through the mobile pay platform.
City officials did not provide details in the briefing on enforcement timing, any transition-period exemptions, or whether hourly rates will change; those specifics were not specified in the recorded announcement. For more information the briefing advised visiting greensboro-nc.gov and searching “parking.”
