2023 Newton Parking Permits Delayed Due To Vendor Issues: Police

NEWTON, MA — Newton’s resident parking permits set to take effect for 2023 have not yet arrived in town due to issues with the permit vendor, according to the Newton Police Department.

Permits from 2022 will remain in effect, as a result, at least through the end of January, police said.

Newton Police announced the issue last week. They shared their message on permit delays again on Tuesday in a statement posted to social media.

Police said they will announce permit availability on social media and through the Newton Mayor’s Office when permits arrive.

Residents needing a permit at that point, though, are still advised to contact the Newton Police Traffic Bureau at 617-796-2106 to confirm availability.

Resident parking permit rules apply to residents living on one of several streets around Newton with a resident parking restriction in place. Permit stickers cost $25, with two stickers allowed per household. Residents need to show proof of residence on their street in order to buy a parking permit.
