Within each permit area there may be significant differences in the operating hours of the permit parking program.Area based permit parking provides greater flexibility by enabling permit holders to park not only on their licenced street but on other licenced street within their area should space not be available on the street where they live.In area based permit parking, residents may park on any licenced street within their permit area, but are not guaranteed a parking space on their specific street.
Permit parking is implemented on either a street name basis where parking is restricted to one specific street, or on an area basis where a number of streets have been grouped into permit areas in order to maximize the available parking.
