Most of the spots in Downtown Hartford are metered. But some are free. To locate them you can use the SpotAngels map before navigating to your desired area.

The map updates in real-time, so simply type in the address you’re parking near, the time you expect to be there, and your duration. The spots where you can legally park will appear on the map along with their prices. The green spots are the ones that are free of charge!

Pro tip: Some of the metered spots (in blue) might be free of charge as well if you happen to park outside of the metered hours 😉

Hartford Parking Rules:

Hartford has some nice parking rules. Most of the metered spots are free of charge on weekends.

Parking meters are enforced Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Rush Hour: There are a bunch of meters around town that are no parking from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and again from 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM.

Unfortunately, Hartford does not offer free parking in metered areas on Holidays

To find parking on the go, download the award-winning SpotAngels app. It is free 😉
