Cambridge Resident Parking Permit Photo Contest Now Open: City

CAMBRIDGE, MA — Got a photo of Cambridge that you think everyone in the city should see? The Cambridge Traffic, Parking, and Transportation Department is calling for submissions for the 2020 Resident Parking Permit Photo Contest. The winning photo will be featured on the 2020 resident parking permit and brochure.

Photographers of all experience are invited to send pictures of scenes in Cambridge to rppcontest@cambridgema.gov by end of day Sunday, September 15

Every year, the city holds a Resident Permit Photo Contest, accepting digital photographs of city buildings, landmarks, or other images that show the beauty of Cambridge. In 2019, Steven Brown’s photo of the Cambridge Fire Department Headquarters was selected as the winner.

2020 marks the first year that the renewal season for Resident and Visitor Parking Permits will run from January 2 to March 31. The new timeline creates more opportunities to issue parking permits, according to city officials. This will result in shorter waiting periods for both in-person and online requests. 2019 Resident and Visitor Parking Permits expire on March 31, 2020.
