Town Of Dedham: Parking Meters In Dedham Square, Holiday Rates, And Other Available Lots

Press release from the Town of Dedham:

12/10/2021 11:00 AM

The construction and installation of new parking meters in the Dedham Square has been completed, and all meters are live and functioning.

As voted unanimously by the Select Board during their November 18, 2021, the parking meters in the Dedham Square will offer two hours of free parking for holiday shopping, beginning on Friday, December 17, 2021 for the benefit of local businesses. The holiday waiver will be in effect through the Christmas weekend, returning to normal function on Monday, December 27, 2021.

Please note, the two-hour time limit at the meters during the holiday waiver will remain in effect. For example, if you leave a car parked at a meter for longer than two hours during posted times, the vehicle owner should expect to receive a $20 citation by mail.

There are three public lots within close proximity to the Dedham Square that offer free daytime parking:

• Keystone Lot (10 Eastern Avenue) 138 spaces
• Lower Gonzalez (506 High Street) 45 spaces
• Upper Gonzalez (420 Providence Highway) 27 spaces

The Town has created a specific Parking page on our website, www.dedham-ma.gov/parking, that includes the following information:

• Parking meter zones and hours of operation
• Parking meter rates and acceptable forms of payment
• How to use the parking meters
• Contact information for the Parking Enforcement Officer
• How to pay/appeal a parking ticket

If you require assistance using the parking meters, experience technical issues, or if you have questions about available parking in Dedham, please call the Parking Enforcement Officer at (781) 751-9245 or email rjohnson@dedham-ma.gov.
