Harrisburg’s free evening parking gets another year, but commissioners want proof it works
Dauphin County Commissioners have approved another year of free evening parking in downtown Harrisburg, but they want data showing how many drivers are taking advantage of the parking. Downtown business owners who spoke with WITF said the program is working, but they also say the cost and inconvenience of parking outside of the free hours remain a barrier for customers.
