Modern Mississauga and the City of Mississauga have come together to present an ongoing series called “Ask the City.” We’ll share relevant information here and answer your questions about our city.

Today’s question is about parking permits.

When do I need a temporary parking permit and how do I request it?

A temporary parking permit allows you to park on the street for longer than five hours and for on-street overnight parking. Cars must be parked in compliance with the City of Mississauga’s Traffic By-law 555-00. For example, you cannot park in a fire route or where there are prohibitive signs.

You can request a temporary parking permit for your home address. These permits last for five days and can be used for up to five different vehicles. Each address is allowed a maximum of 14 temporary street parking permits per year.

You can request a temporary parking permit by:

· Calling 3-1-1 or 905-615-4311 (outside city limits), Monday to Friday 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

· Complete a permit request online 24/7

· Use the PingStreet app 24/7
