Happy holidays from the Watertown Police Department.

WATERTOWN, MA – The Watertown Police Department announced Monday that the town's overnight parking ban will be temporarily suspended starting Friday, Dec. 23.

The suspension is being enacted to accommodate visiting friends and family members during the holiday season. The department will stop enforcing the winter parking ban, barring any snowfall that requires plowing or sanding.

Residents are still encouraged to use available off-street parking during the overnight hours. If there is snow, a list of off-street parking locations will be available on the town website.
