The City of San Antonio's downtown parking facilities, such as this one, aren't free next Tuesday.
In what officials called a “Fiesta Siesta” in a press statement, the city is temporarily suspending its free parking promotion next Tuesday. That means regular parking rates will apply at all city-operated lots and garages and on its meters.
The free parking program will restart Tuesday, May 2.
Once Fiesta is over, in other words.
Created in 2013 by city's Downtown Operations Department, the free Tuesday parking initiative aimed to lure more residents into the rapidly developing center city. Besides offering free parking, Downtown Tuesday has partnered with more than 75 local businesses to provide specials and discounts.
As is typical with Fiesta, special event and parade attendees are advised that street closures may impact the availability of metered parking, city officials also warned in their recent statement.
