Parking in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie: permits, street cleaning, snow and meters

Guide · Checked against official pages on November 11, 2026

Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie adds permit-only spaces when residents ask for them, bans parking for street cleaning from April 1 to December 1, and loads snow under orange signs. Here is what the borough and the City say, rule by rule.

City of Montréal only, for now. More cities to come.

Permit zones

Permit-only spaces are added based on requests from residents. A sticker lets you park in the spaces set aside for it in the sector shown on the sticker, which sometimes covers several street sections.

• To ask for permit spaces on your street, call 311 or email the borough. Once 4 people living at different addresses ask for the same street section, the borough studies it.
• The borough can also add permit zones on its own near a place that draws a lot of trips, such as a metro station, a park, a hospital or a commercial street.
• New zones are added twice a year: in summer and in the fall. The borough tells residents about the new signs before they go up.
• In a new zone, 10% to 30% of the legal spaces become permit-only, depending on the number of requests and the length of the street. At most 70% of a street's legal spaces can become permit-only.
• Permit spaces alternate from one side of a residential street to the other, to allow for street maintenance days.

To get a sticker, you must be the vehicle's main driver and your home must be in a residents-only zone. The limit is 1 sticker per person and per vehicle, and 2 per address. The price depends on when you buy it, your plate colour (green for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, blue for the others) and the vehicle's net weight. Bought between July 1 and December 31, a first sticker costs $125 to $222 and a second one $415, taxes included. It is valid until September 30 of the following year.

Street cleaning

Parking is banned for street maintenance, such as the mechanical sweeper, from April 1 to December 1. The sign on your street gives the exact period, and the City says the ban applies for the whole period shown, rain or shine.

How long you can stay

For cars, the borough sets no time limit. Trucks, trailers, commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles, tool vehicles and auto repair vehicles are limited to 24 hours. The signs on the street still apply.

Snow removal

• Clearing starts as soon as 2.5 cm of snow is on the ground.
• Snow loading is triggered by the City's central services. In general, it is announced around 9 a.m., and the operation starts at 7 p.m. the same day or at 7 a.m. the next morning.
• Loading needs orange no-parking signs. On top of the loadings the City triggers, the borough can launch one more when the weather requires it.
• Each tow slows the operation by about ten minutes.
• Don't park at an angle, on a street corner, or closer than 30 cm to the curb.

The borough lists lots where you may park without paying during snow loading, including the Jardin botanique lot (4101, rue Sherbrooke Est) and the Insectarium lot (4581, rue Sherbrooke Est). The City's snow removal operations map shows the others.

Paid parking on commercial streets

The City sets paid parking periods and maximum times to keep cars moving while shops are open. Since February 1, 2026, the Agence de mobilité durable lists an hourly rate of $2.50 for Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, and a higher rate in the Angus sector. You can pay remotely with the Mobicité app. The Agency asks you to check the rate shown on the sign or the pay station.

Where Panoui! fits

Panoui! reads the City of Montréal's open data on permanent parking signs and shows each known curb in the colour of its rule right now: green, park. Red, don't. Blue, pay. Yellow, for permit holders. Tap a curb for the rule in plain words and when it changes. It doesn't show temporary signs such as snow-loading bans, and it doesn't show whether a space is empty. The posted sign always wins, so give it one last look before you leave your car.
