Parking in Norfolk

All parking lots, garages and on-street parking spots in Norfolk are managed by the City of Norfolk's Parking Division. That’s more than 19,000 public parking spaces and approximately 640 on-street spaces.

On street parking rates, as well as hours of enforcement, depend on the area of the city.

• Downtown meters are enforced Monday through Saturday from 9am to 6pm. They charge $0.35 or $0.45 per 15 minutes.
• Meters in ODU Village are enforced Monday through Sunday from 8am to 8 pm. They charge $0.50 per 30 minutes.
• Meters in the Arts and Design District allow a FREE two-hour stay.

Parking meters allow a maximum stay of up to 2 hours, with the exception of meters in front of the Waterside Marketplace, which allow a maximum 15-minute stay.

Meters accept coins, credit cards and ParkCards. If you’re frequently parking at various on-street locations downtown, consider buying a meter permit to save some money on parking and get rid of the constant need to carry around change in your pockets.

Public lots and garages in Norfolk charge $1.50 per hour of stay, up to $13.00 per 24 hours. Monthly parking rates differ depending on the location and vary between $80-$130 per month.

Check out our detailed maps if you need to find parking at Norfolk International Airport, MacArthur Memorial Museum, or Harbor Park Stadium.

If you were issued a parking citation, you should know that it can be paid or appealed online. You can also pay them by mail, by phone, at drop boxes or in person. For details and addresses, check the City of Norfolk website.
