Jacksonville, Fl — Change is coming to how you park in St. Augustine. Today, the city will start installing cashless, touch screen kiosks at over 40 downtown parking pay stations.
All the kiosks should be installed by Friday. Once the work is done, you’ll need a credit card to pay.
The city says the upgrade is intended to provide visitors with more user-friendly technology.
The project is organized into a three-phase process to transition the downtown parking areas to the new equipment.
Phase one of the project focuses on kiosks located around the Plaza. This includes stations on St. George Street, Cathedral Place and King Street. Work during this phase also covers the bayfront north along Avenida Menendez and the parking lot at the Castillo de San Marcos.
The second phase centers on the area surrounding City Hall. This phase includes Granada, Cedar and Cordova streets. Technicians will also replace stations along the bayfront south on Avenida Menendez and Marine Street.
Phase three involves several metered locations throughout the city and Lincolnville. These locations include Charlotte Street, Valencia Street, Markland Place, the Tolomato Lot and the Excelsior Lot.
