22 Aug 2022|1,368 views
The Housing and Development Board (HDB) as well as the Urban Redevelopment Authority have announced that the grace period offered in their carparks equipped with the with the Electronic Parking System (EPS) will be reduced to 15 minutes starting from 1 September 2022.
This adjustment comes following the previous extension of the grace period to 20 minutes during the COVID-19 outbreak, to facilitate the increased volume of deliveries for food, groceries and other essential goods when residents stayed home.
HDB will also end the sale of parking coupons at its braches from 19 September 2022 - you'll have to find them at petrol stations or convinence stores The HDB states that the new 15 minute grace period was found to be sufficient to carry out pick-ups and drop-offs given the shift towards e-commerce and increased demand for deliveries. Motorists who exit the car parks beyond the grace period will continue to pay parking fees for the full duration, including the first 15 minutes.
This new grace period is also still longer than the 10 minutes that was offered prior to April 2020.
Following this, HDB has also announced that it will discontinue the sale and exchange of parking coupons at all HDB branches with effect from 19 September 2022. Motorists can continue to purchase coupons from authorised agents such as petrol stations, as well as 7-Eleven and Cheers outlets island-wide.
HDB states that the sales of parking coupons have dropped by 99% in recent years, attributed to the implementation of the EPS in over nine in 10 HDB car parks. Motorists are encouraged to use the Parking.sg app to pay for short-term parking at HDB and URA coupon-based car parks where the EPS is not installed due to site constraints.
