Just a few of the different types of parking meters in the area near downtown.

An old-fashioned double meter in Westmount with digital display.

A single old-fashioned digital meter in Westmount.

A new automated parking payment center found in the downtown core. When you get out of the car, you look to see what the parking spot number is. Then you go to the nearest parking payment center and enter your space number and pay for it. The machine then gives you a receipt with your space number, and the time your meter expires. What I like about these payment centers is that they can be found all over the downtown area, and they are all interconnected, so you can pay your meter anywhere downtown. No more running back to your parking spot.

The back of the payment centre. Notice the solar panels on top for power.

The signs for some parking spots.

Unlike most cities, handicapped people in Montreal have to pay for parking. But fortunately, they can still use old-fashioned meters next to handicapped parking spots.
