Paid Parking Now Implemented at Sauble Beach

Paid parking is now in full swing at Sauble Beach.

The new system, which was implemented on July 1, allows beachgoers to pay the $3-an-hour or $12-a-day rate using their cell phone.

South Bruce Peninsula officials say citizens can pay by registering their licence plate online, through an app, or by calling a toll-free number.

Along with the mobile options, the town has also installed five pay machines along Lakeshore Boulevard for those who can't pay electronically.

Meanwhile, SBP residents can pay $25 to receive a season pass. For non-residents, that price jumps to $100.

Paid parking will only be in place from 8:30am to 5pm until September 15.

More information regarding the new program can be found here.
