The Thunder Bay Parking Authority is considering implementing paid parking in the Market Square parking lot, nestled between the splash pad/skating rink, Delta hotel, and former CN station.

Parking authority supervisor Jonathan Paske acknowledged the proposal could generate controversy, but believes it would ultimately produce better outcomes for park users. “Of course, it does generate revenue, but the main reason is to manage the parking for people who need the spaces,” said Paske. Paske said that time limit, introduced in 2022, is challenging to enforce without using the paid system.
