DCR Winter Storm Advisory
Parking Bans Along Agency-Managed Parkways
Starting today, January 28, 2022, the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) will implement parking bans along agency-managed parkways due to a winter storm event that is likely to impact the Commonwealth. Parking bans will be consistent with local municipal bans in which the parkways are located. As in past years, parking bans are expected to be lifted shortly after the completion of snow clearing operations.
Additionally, Boston residents with a South Boston Resident Parking Program permit (vehicle sticker) issued by the City’s Parking Clerk will be able to park at DCR’s Castle Island parking lot. Parking will be permitted overnight and up to at least 48-hours after a storm event-mirroring the City’s space saver policy at the Castle Island Parking lot. Standard parking rules will apply. Residents must do their best to park within the marked parking spaces and avoid parking in prohibited areas like fire lanes, cross walks, curb cuts, etc.
All DCR-managed parkways will adhere to local municipal parking bans. As of 5:00PM this evening, the following municipalities have announced parking bans, which will impact DCR parkways:
