Downtown Royal Oak Now Offers Free Handicap Parking

(CBS DETROIT) - Parking for disabled persons is now free in many areas in Downtown Royal Oak and it will last through February 2020.

It's being offered at nearly two dozen recently added on-street handicap spots and all surface lots.

Normal parking rates still apply at all city-owned parking structures.

Here's where the locations of the on-street handicap parking spaces:
- Washington Avenue
- Center and Seventh streets.

They were selected to minimize the distance to the nearest ramp or dropped curb, and to provide a safe aisle adjacent to the parking space according to city officials.
