Episode Details

Starting Saturday, August 1st, downtown Raleigh drivers brace for higher parking costs—the first hike since 2018—for decks, streets, and monthly permits, aimed at funding security, maintenance, and upgrades. On-street rates jump to $1.50/hour; city garages (non-event) now charge $3/hour (down from $2), but free two-hour weekday parking remains—and weekends stay free. Monthly permits climb to $135 from $125. Critics worry it may deter visitors, especially with easier parking elsewhere, while others plan to adapt using free-parking windows or avoiding pricier spots.
