The Town of Milton says its overnight parking pilot program is continuing to help ease pressure on residential streets as the community grows.
Introduced in June 2025, the pilot provides roughly 400 overnight parking spaces across 15 municipal parks, offering a temporary solution as neighbourhood density increases and transit use evolves. Town officials say locations were selected based on factors such as parking ticket volumes, zoning for accessory dwellings, and geographic distribution across all four wards, with renewed demand expected this spring.
Designated overnight permit locations by ward
- Ward 1: Brian Best Park (North and South), Bronte Meadows Park, Scott Neighbourhood Park (East Lot), Sherwood District Park
- Ward 2: Clark Neighbourhood Park (North and South), Laurier Park, Lions Park (East Lot)
- Ward 3: Beaty Neighbourhood Park (South Lot), Coates Neighbourhood Park (North and South), Cobban Neighbourhood Park
- Ward 4: Ford Neighbourhood Park, Milton Community Park, Optimist Neighbourhood Park, Sunny Mount Park, Willmott Neighbourhood Park
Permits cost $60 per month and are available on a first-come, first-served basis, allowing holders to park overnight at any designated park location, provided they have no outstanding parking violations. The Town notes that fees help cover enforcement, signage, software, and administrative costs, with its parking contractor responsible for enforcing regulations. Apply here.
Town staff say they will continue to review data and community feedback from the pilot program throughout the year before determining any long-term parking solutions.
