 Hi, I'm Kelsey from the Portland Parking Division. If you're visiting Portland for a short time and need parking, it can be confusing, but I'm here to help you. In Portland, we have the old style coring meters. We also have kiosks that you can print out a ticket that you put in your dashboard, and you can also pay on your phone through the Passport app. And the Passport Parking app is a convenient way to pay for parking from any location through your phone. Portland has a two-hour limit for on-street parking, and there are 15-minute meter zones throughout the city, so please pay attention to where you're parking. Having the two-hour limit allows for more accessibility for local businesses and for other customers to find parking more easily. Once you pay in the zone, you can move around the zone and still have your session be valid. If you have to stay longer than two hours in downtown, consider parking in a parking garage or a parking lot. There are two city-owned parking garages and many privately-owned parking garages and lots. Prices vary, but the City of Portland maintains an updated pricing list on their website, portlandmain.gov. If you don't want to pay for parking or get a parking ticket, downtown Portland has abundant sidewalks, and Portland Trails maintains a network of trails that pass throughout the city. Portland is a very bike-friendly city with many bike parking options and bike repair stations throughout the city. All of greater Portland metro routes pass through downtown Portland, as well as transit routes from neighboring cities, so you can get here from there.
