Park & Pay Stations Installed Near USC

The Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) is in the process of installing Park & Pay Stations near USC. The pay stations will be activated as follows:

Tuesday, January 20, 2009
Jefferson Bl between Vermont Ave and McClintock Ave (13 pay stations)

Thursday, January 22, 2009
Jefferson Bl between McClintock Ave and Figueroa St (9 pay stations)
west side of Figueroa St south of Jefferson Bl (3 pay stations)

Additional information can be found at here. Traffic officers will be stationed nearby as ambassadors to assist the public the first two days of operation of the new Park & Pay Stations.

As you may know, LADOT has been adjusting parking meter rates and hours of operation since September 2008 to better match the heavy demand for parking throughout the City. Previously, L.A.'s rates were among the lowest in the country, having not been adjusted in over 20 years on the average. The minimum parking meter rate in the City is now $1 per hour, with rates up to $3 and $4 per hour Downtown.

In addition, most meters ceased operation at 6:00 PM, just when they are most needed in many areas to keep parking spaces turning over and available for evening customers. The meter hours have now generally be extended to 8:00 PM Citywide. In entertainment and shopping districts, where the demand for parking extends later, meters operate up to midnight on Friday and Saturday nights and from 11 AM to 8 PM on Sundays.

The parking meter rate for the Pay Stations and all single space meters in the area will be $1 per hour, and the new meter hours will be 8am-8pm Monday-Saturday. The existing time limits, such as the "4 Hour Parking" near the campus, will remain the same.
