Greater Shepparton City Council’s complimentary parking period ends today (January 31).

For the months of December and January, council-run on-street parking spaces in Shepparton have been free to use, although time limits have still applied.

From Wednesday, February 1, paid parking for on-street car parks will resume and infringements will be issued for failure to pay and exceeding time limits.

Council-owned off-street car parks will remain complimentary and timed.

You do not have to pay for parking in council on-street car parks on Saturdays and Sundays but time limits and infringements still apply.

Council recommends downloading the PayStay app to your phone, describing it as the easiest and most efficient way to pay for parking in Shepparton.
