Test drive Blenheim’s new parking meters
New Pay by Plate parking meters are coming to Blenheim’s CBD mid-year.
A practice meter has been set up at the Council office at 15 Seymour Street. Come in and test drive the new system, anytime from 8.00 am to 5.00 pm on week days.
The new meters are easy to use - you simply enter your plate number and time, press ok, pay, then walk away.
The ticketless system accepts coins and debit/credit cards and means there’s no need to return to your vehicle after you’ve paid.
