The City of Woodstock provides convenient and accessible parking for those doing business or visiting our city. There are 10 municipal parking lots with 552 parking space, 351 on-street parking, as well as, 19 accessible spaces around our downtown core. Most of our on-street parking is limited to five hours unless otherwise posted. Our downtown core has a limit of two-hour parking unless otherwise posted and during the month of December only is extended to three hour parking.
