On March 19, the town relaxed on-street parking enforcement in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Parking enforcement had been limited to safety-related issues such as blocked fire routes, hydrants, driveways, and misuse of accessible parking spaces.

Unless otherwise posted there is a maximum five-hour street parking limit in Milton.

Other bylaw parking enforcement includes:

  • From 2 a.m. to 6 a.m.
  • In any area where a “No Parking Anytime” sign is displayed
  • On a grass boulevard
  • On a boulevard within 50 m of an intersection and within 3 m of the curb line
  • On residential landscaping
  • Within 3 m of a fire hydrant
  • Within 1 m of a driveway
  • Facing the wrong direction on the road
