Asbury Park Bringing Back Paid Parking To Keep Crowds Away

Matt Ryan just recently told you that Belmar is now enforcing "Resident Only Parking" to help keep out-of-towners away and now another Jersey Shore town is following suit.

Asbury Park has now brought back metered parking to help keep visitors away.

The pay-for-parking will start back up on May 1st. This was originally nixed to try and help Jersey Shore residents who are financially struggling.

"We're hoping if you're required to pay for parking you'll go somewhere else," said Deputy Mayor Amy Quinn.

If you do need to go to the Asbury Park area, officials suggest that residents use the paid parking app called Asbury PARK instead of physically touching the meters to pay.

For now, the e-scooter and bike-share programs are on hold.
