What is the Calgary Parking Authority (CPA)? The Calgary Parking Authority manages and operates public parking facilities for The City of Calgary. In addition, CPA is responsible for the residential parking permit program and the parking enforcement program. How many parking spaces does CPA manage?The Calgary Parking Authority manages 6,689 on-street parking spaces and 10,685 stalls in surface lots and parkades, approximately 14% of all available paid parking stalls in Calgary. Is the CPA planning to add more parking spaces to the downtown core?The current City Transportation Plan approved by City Council limits the amount of long-stay (all day commuter) parking in the Downtown area. The intention is to limit the amount of long-stay parking in favor of increased transit or alternative transportation use. While the overall number of parking spaces will increase with continued development of office space, fewer spaces will be designated for long-stay parking. How does the CPA set the parking rates for surface lots and parkades?Market surveys are conducted approximately every quarter to determine the market value of parking stalls. The CPA rates are set according to market value. Rates rise or fall according to the supply and demand for parking stalls. Is it possible to obtain monthly parking from CPA in the downtown core?Find out more information about monthly parking on this website by visiting www.calgaryparking.com/web/guest/monthlyparking. Does my Monthly Transit Parking pass cover downtown on-street parking? No, your Monthly Transit Parking pass is ONLY for the Calgary Transit parking lots. You still are required to pay for parking downtown.
