Saint John has declared a temporary overnight parking ban Saturday night for the city’s south/central peninsula.
All vehicles must be moved off the streets from 11 p.m. Saturday until 7 a.m. Sunday or risk being ticketed and/or towed.
“The purpose of a Parking Ban is to allow plow crews to push snow back from all streets in the South/Central Peninsula to maintain access to all streets – especially narrow ones – by emergency and private vehicles throughout the winter,” the city said in a news release.
Five Saint John Parking lots will be cleared for use by on-street parking residents beginning at 6 p.m. Saturday.
- Corner of Duke and Sydney Street
- Peters Street
- Carmarthen Street (Vineyard Church)
- Sydney Street (Service New Brunswick)
- Vulcan Street

In addition, the Peel Plaza Parking Garage will offer a $5 overnight parking rate between 6 p.m. and 8 a.m.
A similar temporary overnight parking ban was put in place Friday night for the north, east and west areas of the city.
City officials say 133 tickets were issued during the ban but no vehicles were towed.
OVERNIGHT ON-STREET PARKING BAN declared for South/Central Peninsula from 11pm tonight until 7am tomorrow. Vehicles not moved will be ticketed and/or towed at owner's expense.
