Wellington council offers free Christmas parking
Christmas is coming early to the CBD, with a weekend parking special being offered at Clifton Car Park from this weekend.
The car park, owned by Waka Kotahi and managed by Wellington City Council, is offering a weekend parking special where the first 2 hours are free, and then every hour after is $2 up to a maximum of $6 per day.
The offer will run every weekend from Saturday 14 November 2020 – Monday 25 January 2021, and includes public holidays.
The car park can be entered via The Terrace and has easy access to Lambton Quay and the Cable Car – perfect for a spot of Christmas shopping.
There is also free parking for motorcycles and scooters on the first floor of the main building.
Clifton Car Park is open 24/7 and managed by barrier arms but can be entered and exited at any time.
After the two free hours, it’s $6 maximum per day on weekends and public holidays up until midnight – whereupon a new day session starts.
