NEWPORT ISSUES MANDATORY PARKING BAN FOR SATURDAY

Residents Urged to Seek Off-Street Parking
 
NEWPORT, R.I. (FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 2026) – Please be advised that a mandatory Parking Ban will be in effect on Saturday, Feb. 7th from 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. in anticipation of Winter Storm conditions.

Newport residents are being urged to take advantage of free parking at the Gateway Center, Mary Street, and Touro Street parking lots during the storm. Residents are also encouraged to request the use of a neighbor’s driveway to secure off street parking in order to keep vehicles off the roadways.

Not only does getting your car off the street help protect it from damage, but it also allows the City’s snow plows to operate with greater safety and efficiency.

Please be advised that any motor vehicles parked on the following streets one-half hours after the parking ban begins may be subject to tow:
Annandale Road, Bellevue Avenue: (Kay Street to Bowery St), Bedlow Avenue, Bliss Road, Broadway, Coggeshall Avenue, East Bowery Street, Farewell Street, Friendship Street, Gibbs Avenue, Gould Street, Kay Street, Powell Avenue, Spring Street, Summer Street, Thames Street, Third Street, Warner Street, Washington Street, Washington Square, West Marlboro Street, West Narragansett Avenue, William Street, and Van Zandt Avenue, from J.T. Connell Memorial Road East to Malbone Road.

A map of restricted streets can also be found on the City's website by clicking here: https://buff.ly/3f3yPBb
Once the storm passes, residents and business owners are reminded to shovel any sidewalks adjacent to their property within five hours of the storm’s conclusion.

Newport was designed to be a walkable city and keeping clear paths for pedestrians after it snows is a responsibility that all property owners share.
