Parking in Midland

Winter Parking Restrictions in Effect

As per the Parking By-law, any vehicles parked between 12am and 7am on Town streets, in municipal parking lots, or in any manner that interferes with snow plowing or winter maintenance, may be ticketed or towed. The Town appreciates all efforts with parking off-street and keeping our roads safe.

As the Town of Midland grows, so does the need for parking. The Parking Study helped create a plan to make the best use of parking for residents, businesses, and visitors. The study concluded in November 2025. There will be a staff report presented to Town Council for consideration in spring 2026.
