Burlington is evolving from a suburban community to a city. The city is changing, especially in our downtown core. As more residents and businesses move to Burlington, this impacts how we choose to get around, especially in the downtown.

Parking plays a crucial role in this. Where you can park, for how long and how much it costs determines if you walk, cycle, take transit, drive or ride share. It also affects housing prices and the look and feel of our downtown.

The City’s Integrated Mobility Plan recommends a Strategic Parking Management Program to focus on improving parking. We need to match the supply and cost of parking with our transportation objectives. Parking is a key service that supports residents, services, retailers, events, tourism and visitors, especially in our downtown.

We’re studying parking in our downtown through a Downtown Parking Plan (DPP). This plan will help us figure out future parking needs to support growth and land use in the downtown area. Having a strategic downtown parking plan will result in better parking options and financial sustainability.

    The Burlington Downtown Parking Plan has now completed the first phase of the project. Read the Existing Conditions and Needs Assessment Report for details on key findings from the parking inventory and utilization, and the key themes that have emerged from our analysis to-date.

    Phase 2 has now begun, which includes detailed analysis of future parking needs and the development of a strategic plan for parking operations and management.

    Public engagement and stakeholder consultation continue to be vital to the success of this project. A second Public Information Centre will be held this Spring 2025 to provide further opportunities for feedback and input. Details of this meeting will be provided in a separate notice and posted to the project website, closer to the time.
