Paid parking kicks in Nov. 20 in Vail

Paid parking in Vail’s parking structures and outlying lots begins Friday, Nov. 20 to coincide with the start of Vail Mountain’s 2015-16 ski and snowboard season. Parking passes are available for purchase from 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Monday through Friday throughout the season on the lower level of the Vail Municipal Building, 75 S. Frontage Rd. Bring proof of eligibility as restrictions apply.

The town is offering five parking pass options which provide significant discounts over the standard daily rates. Value card holders from previous seasons are asked to stop by the Municipal Building to activate new cards. Please bring proof of employment, residency or property ownership to meet qualifications.

Also beginning Friday, Vail Transit will be adding service across all routes to supplement the early winter season, Nov. 20 to Dec.13. Additional frequency will be added to routes with the start of the regular winter schedule which runs Dec. 14 to April 10.
