Free street parking in Montreal

score:4

Accepted answer

According to the the site, it is not free, at best it is 1$/hour at worse it is reserved for resident.

On the stationnement de Montreal site, When you zoom on the map:

"NOTE : les zones non colorées sont tarifées à 1 $ / h."

There are some free spots here and there, but hard to find.

have a look at Parkopedia

I used this zip code, H2L 3T9 to center around where you are looking for. (click on the "street" button at the bottom)

There doesn'T seem to be a lot of free space for the whole day.

I always suggest finding a paid parking garage spot as a plan B.

I wrote this blog post and built a map to find free parking in Montreal. It is mainly downtown for now but the map can be edited by anybody a la Waze.

There is a free spot just nearby on rue Robin between St André et Labreque https://www.spotangels.com/#id=296811059&address=941%20Rue%20Robin%2C%20Montr%C3%A9al

Not completely. Most of the street is non-stopping. Part of it is not paid because it is reserved for those with a residence permit. There may be a few free spots in between but those are rather limited around the Montreal downtown area. There is also a moment, usually an hour or so, some days when parking is not allowed along the whole street, so you cannot park for free over extended periods.

Generally, Montreal parking is paid around the center of the city from 9 am-9 pm weekdays and 1-6 pm on weekends. This gives you free parking the rest of the time. A portion of what is left of the city center is reserved for residents, usually the whole day, but there are many areas where it is reserved for part of the day or night only. Unfortunately parking rules in Montreal are rather complicated and you may have up to 3 signs applying different rules to the same side of a street block.
