Free Parking At Reston Town Center, Thanks To A Glitch
For a few hours on Wednesday, ParkRTC was down and there was once again free parking for all.
RESTON, VA — People opposed to the implementation of paid parking at Reston Town Center got their wish on Wednesday ... but only temporarily. No one had to pay for parking for hours thanks to a glitch with the ParkRTC app, according to multiple users on social media.
ParkRTC users who tried to pay on Wednesday got the following message: "There is free parking at the Reston Town Center until further notice."
Unfortunately for those hoping to save a few bucks -- or that it's a sign that Boston Properties is about to budge on the issue -- the glitch has reportedly been fixed.
