Free overnight parking will be available in the Vail Village and Lionshead structures beginning Monday, Oct. 1 and extending to the start of the ski season which is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 16. The $25 overnight fee has been in place since May 25 and was implemented as a pilot program to discourage overnight vehicle storage to free up spaces for day users. Parking has remained free throughout the summer for vehicles parked during the day and evening. The overnight rate has been assessed for vehicles parked between 4 and 5 a.m.

 

 

The Vail Village and Lionshead parking structures are currently available for free, unlimited access. This is in advance of the town’s fully-staffed summer parking operations which will begin May 25.

An end of season reminder is being issued by the Town of Vail to all parking pass holders. Following the last day of paid winter parking on Sunday, April 15, most parking pass types will be enabled for use during the 2018 summer season, which will run May 25 through Sept. 30. This includes Green, Blue, Silver and Gold passes as well as the Value card.

Thanks for your patience as we work to finalize our summer parking program for 2018. In announcing details of the program, we want to emphasize there will be little to no impact on your ability to access the Vail Village and Lionshead parking structures for free this summer. The primary focus of the summer parking program (which includes a corresponding $25 overnight fee) is to reduce the number of vehicles stored for the season as well as long-term park-and-ride use.

For the first time in 10 years, winter parking rates will increase for users of the Vail Village and Lionshead parking structures as well as pricing adjustments for season pass holders. In approving the new fee structure at its Oct. 3 meeting, Vail Town Council members said the modifications were necessary to help meet the town’s goal to limit the amount of overflow parking on the south frontage road and to encourage use of free outlying parking. Another change will shorten the free parking period in the structures to be offset by a recommended merchant validation system to improve availability of close-in parking.

Town of Vail bus routes servicing the West Vail area will return to their regular schedules beginning Monday, Oct. 9 in preparation for the Friday, Oct. 13 opening of the new Vail I-70 Underpass following a public ribbon cutting ceremony.  The West Vail Green route will be reactivated with frequency every 40 minutes while the West Vail Red route also will return to its pre-construction frequency of every 40 minutes. The modified routes have been in place since July 5, 2016 to accommodate one-way detours on the frontage roads. During the winter season, a West Vail express bus will incorporate use of the underpass for added efficiency.
