Case #: N/A

The Toronto Police Service has been working closely with our City of Toronto and Emergency Management partners during the COVID-19 pandemic and will continue to support the various programs implemented by the City to reduce the spread of COVID-19.

On Monday, June 14, 2021, at 12:01 a.m., routine enforcement of on-street parking regulations will resume as Toronto and the rest of Ontario enter ‘Step One’ of the Province's Roadmap to Reopen.

Traffic volume has increased over the last few weeks and is expected to continue in the coming days.

Enforcement will include overtime violations such as three-hour by-law and posted time limits, residential on-street permit violations, residential change-over parking regulations, and on-street pay and display violations.

As businesses and services reopen, the enforcement of these regulations will ensure the safe and orderly flow of traffic, increase parking space availability and provide emergency vehicle access.

On-street residential and temporary permit purchase information can be found here.

We ask for the public’s cooperation in parking legally and safely, so that the efficient flow of traffic in the City of Toronto is maintained.
