If there was one good thing to come out of the COVID-19 pandemic, free parking in Park City might have been it.
Since the pandemic began affecting Americans in earnest in March, the city has waived parking fees at all of the major parking areas like Main Street and the China Bridge parking garage.
As the winter tourist season reaches its peak, the city will be reintroducing paid parking citywide in an effort to reduce car traffic downtown and encourage people to walk or use alternate methods of transportation to get downtown.
