Parking Bans

The Town of Wakefield occasionally issues storm parking bans during the winter season. You will be notified of a parking ban by our e-Alert system, via our Facebook page, and on this website. Failure to comply with the regulation will result in the owner receiving a ticket from the Wakefield Police Department and/or the removal of the vehicle from the roadway during a snow emergency. The DPW encourages the removal of all vehicles from the roadways during the winter season to ensure the safety of plow operators and to ensure that all roads are cleared curb-to-curb.

Illegally parked vehicles are the biggest obstacle to effective snow removal efforts. Vehicles that are illegally parked or otherwise hinder snow removal will be ticketed and towed at the owner’s expense. Please support our efforts by parking your vehicle in conformance with the storm parking ban.
