A discounted evening and weekend rate ($9.00) is available for parking from 4:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. (the same night) or weekends from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. You must park and exit within the specified time to receive the discounted rate. If you enter before the rate takes effect, or exit after the specified end time on the date of entry you will be charged the full public rate for the entire time you are parked. A daily discounted rate ($11.00) is available for parking for up to 12 hours. If parked for 12 hours or more, regular garage rates will apply. The discounts do not guarantee a parking space. Overnight parking is not allowed. The discounts are only available at the Erie Ontario Garage and the Huron Superior Garage.
