Parking Time Limits

The purpose of the time limit is to ensure that parking spaces regularly become available for customers of businesses and visitors to the area. When the time limit posted on the meter has been reached, vehicles must leave that parking space. It is illegal to deposit additional coins in the meter after the time limit has been reached. Meters located in 90 Minute and 2 Hour Limit locations are intended for short-term parking. You may return and deposit additional coins to increase your stay at any No Time Limit location.

Nashua Parking Card

Parking cards can be purchased and re-charged in the rear lobby of City Hall and the lobby at the Library. The Parking Card can be used at any of the electronic meters located throughout downtown. A lost or stolen Parking Card cannot be replaced and refunds cannot be given if a card becomes damaged or unusable.

Meter Trouble

Report the broken meter by calling 603-589-3331 and leaving a detailed message, including meter number, date and time, and meter issue. If that is not possible, leave a note on your windshield and notify the Transportation Department as soon as possible.

Monthly Parking Permits

You may inquire as to the availability of reserved parking spaces at any of the City of Nashua’s municipal lots or parking garages by contacting 603-880-0100 ext. 3 or by emailing parking@nashuanh.gov.

Handicap Parking

Vehicles bearing a valid disabled parking permit or license plate may park without charge. These vehicles may be subject to time restrictions for the parking meter or time limit location in which they are parked.
