Park City’s historic old town will become a pedestrian paradise most Sundays throughout this summer; no cars will be permitted from lower Main Street to the intersection of Hillside Avenue. Swede Alley will remain open, allowing access to neighborhoods and parking.
The car-free Sunday schedule coincides with the Park Silly Market summer schedule. Car-free means people coming to Main Street must arrive by other means, such as transit, walking, or cycling, or they’ll pay to park.
Car-free Sundays run through September 25, with the exceptions of August 7, 14, and 21.
For Silly Sunday and car-free days, parking in all the usual old town paid parking lots will be $7 per hour, with a maximum of $30 until 4 p.m. Free parking in China Bridge is available from 4 to 6 p.m. Normal rates kick in at 6 with no first hour free.
Other special event parking days include July 4, which will charge a flat fee of $30 until 1 p.m. to park. After 1, normal rates will be back in effect.
For the Kimball Art Festival, which runs from August 5 to 7, parking will cost $7 per hour or $30 maximum for each day’s events. The standard parking rate is $3 per hour outside the designated event times.
Park City has nine paid lots in the Old Town district.
