White Rock’s winter season parking rates are set to end Jan. 31, meaning beginning Wednesday, visitors will have to pay to park along the city’s waterfront.
Parking in the city has been free on week days – and reduced on weekends – since late November, when the winter rates came into effect.
When shoulder season parking kicks in Feb. 1, parking will cost $2 per hour, seven days a week – from 10 a.m. until midnight – in waterfront lots along Marine Drive, or in the city’s Montecito and West Beach parkades.
The City of White Rock tweeted about it, urging followers to “Visit the White Rock Museum, stop by your favourite restaurant or walk the White Rock Promenade, all while parking for free,” before time runs out.

Parking rates at Centennial Arena and Peace Arch Hospital remain unchanged.
