Are you looking for a place to park in Downtown Essex Junction while you grab a bite to eat or go shopping? Village staff, in collaboration with the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) have developed a parking map for the Village Center district. Currently, there are 328 public parking spots available, which can be used between 7AM and midnight. An additional 935 spots are available in private lots. Some of these locations allow non-customers to use their lots outside of business hours.
We would also like to highlight the fact that free parking for approximately thirty vehicles is available in the gravel lot behind Road Res Q. The lot is plowed and maintained by Village Public Works staff. It is rarely full and provides easy access to many destinations in the downtown area. Please note this location will be used for the Five Corners Farmers Market on Wednesdays (May through October) from noon to 8pm so is not available for parking when the Market is in session
