Triton Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I kept searching for this on mobile but it looks like search isn't exactly working 100% so please let me know if this thread exists already. I noticed all the signs now say 3 hour max Monday through Saturday. Didn't they used to read free after 6pm? Is anyone aware of a changing to parking in these areas?

cspwal Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Downtown managment district says it's still free after 6 pm https://www.downtownhouston.org/parking/-street-parking/ Quote The meters accept cash, credit cards and pay-by-phone; hourly prices vary depending on location. Meters are FREE after 6 pm Monday-Saturday and all day Sunday City of Houston website still says that too https://www.houstontx.gov/parking/faq.html#whenenforced Quote Question: When are parking meters enforced? Answer: Parking meters are enforced Monday through Saturday, 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., except where pay station or posted signs indicate otherwise. Parking meters are not enforced on Official City Holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have sworn the signs actually had designated times on them along with the 3 hrs max. Perhaps not! Thanks cspwal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbates2 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 It is 5:52 and my ParkMobile app will only allow me to pay for a max of 8 minutes. I think the rules are unchanged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new meters just won't accept payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbates2 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 That are unnecessarily huge and take up half of the sidewalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 Thanks everyone. Think my wife and I recalled what the signs said incorrectly. Good to see it's still free at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
