Big news for Metra commuters in the Naperville area: The Naperville City Council will begin amending its commuter rail parking lot permit policy, making the move to daily parking fees in the coming months.
Quarterly permit parking spaces in Naperville's Metrea commuter rail station lots may be phased out in favor of a daily, pay-by-plate system to be implemented in fall 2023.
After voting to eliminate the parking permit system at the Route 59 and Naperville/Fourth Avenue Metra rail stations in March, City Council members are expected to now review those amendments and consider a daily rate at its Tuesday meeting.Under a revised plan, commuters would instead have to pay only for the days they park. City staff said the move was proposed because of regional trends and current occupancy data that shows commuting patterns are different than they were several years ago.
Pending approval, the Parkview, DuPage Children’s Museum, 190 E. 5th Avenue and Burlington Lots at the Naperville station would cost $5 per day under the fee structure. The remaining on-street parking spaces at the Naperville station and at the Route 59 station would cost $2 per day.
