Parking is free in municipally owned parking lots in Dieppe, but some restrictions apply. Failure to abide by them may lead to getting a ticket or being towed.

Prohibited parking

The city’s designated no-parking zones are clearly indicated either on the pavement or on signs along streets, sidewalks and buildings.

Winter parking

Curbside parking is banned until March 31, between midnight and 7 a.m.

What exactly does that mean?

Previously, curbside parking was prohibited in the winter between midnight and 7 a.m., from December 1 to March 31. The restriction is essential to ensure efficient and safe snow clearing for both residents and City staff.

However, snowfalls greater than five centimetres (two inches) are beginning later and later in the winter season. Postponing the start date of the overnight ban could potentially give residents a few extra weeks to make safe parking arrangements for their vehicles.

Why not just allow parking except for during snow removal operations?

The City is considering that option, but the municipality needs to develop new processes and tools to manage winter parking efficiently and safely and to notify residents in a timely manner. Each community has different circumstances and different resources depending on the needs of its residents. In keeping with the City’s desire to constantly improve its operations, Dieppe is studying the possibility of implementing alternative solutions to meet the needs of all residents.

It’s important to remember that even if parking is permitted between snow clearing operations, households that don’t normally have enough parking space still have to find alternatives on nights when snow crews are working.

Does curbside parking hinder snow removal?

Cars parked at the curb in the winter pose many challenges and interfere with the quality and safety of snow removal operations, not only during storms, but also when snow removal and street widening are required to ensure the safety of all road users.

How is the ban good for the environment?

Dieppe wishes to continue responsible development and reduce its collective environmental footprint. The municipality is working very hard to further boost the efficiency of its public transit system and network of trails and bike paths, with a view to reducing reliance on cars and ensuring that each household no longer needs several vehicles.

By allowing winter curbside parking, however, the municipality is sort of encouraging residents to own more than one car per family. The more cars on the road, the higher our greenhouse gas emissions.

What risks does curbside parking pose?

Cars parked at the curb are not only a hazard during snow clearing operations, but also when emergency service providers are trying to reach someone.

Some streets in Dieppe are narrower, and cars can block access for fire trucks, hindering the safety of first responders and residents alike.

Heavy and recreational vehicles

Bylaw Z-10 deals with the parking and storage of heavy and recreational vehicles (RVs). You are allowed to park your RV in your front yard between April 1 and November 30.
