Parking Fees and Locations - Blenheim

Blenheim CBD Parking

Marlborough District Council administer more than 1,700 public car parks in Blenheim. Metered car parks use the Pay By Plate ticketless parking system and PayMyPark phone app. Pay By Plate and PayMyPark use your vehicle licence plate number to record your parking start time and payment.

Blenheim metered car parks are grouped by ‘zone’, and each zone has a unique time limit and tariff. Therefore, it is important to ensure you use the correct meter for the zone your vehicle is parked in to avoid an infringement, including starting a new session if you move between zones.
