Free downtown parking extended through February

Parking in downtown Leesburg will remain free through the end of February.

The extended free parking promotion will allow for a smoother transition to the new ParkMobile system for on-street parking. Free on-street parking will continue to be limited to two hours, and will be enforced by the Town’s parking staff.

Free parking will also remain at the Town Hall parking garage, in recognition of limited availability due to the ongoing construction work.

The on-street ParkMobile system allows drivers to easily find and pay for parking simply by scanning a QR code, sending a text message, or downloading the free app. More information about the transition to the ParkMobile system will be forthcoming.

Staff will begin the removal of old meters and replace them with new ParkMobile signs the week of Feb. 22. New on-street parking rates go into effect on Wednesday, March 1.

Paid parking is expected to resume in the Town Hall parking garage beginning the week of Monday, Feb. 27.
